Hi...

    Recently bought an intarsia piece.... 
    Got it, and it is all of what was pictured.... 
    How does one do intarsia....I know it's inlaid...in the jewelry
    world.. Stones on stone... 
    But with epoxy....? Super glue...? 
    I did a Google search, and got a lot of reference to wood... 
    Can I soak this thing in water...alcohol...? 
    What are the intarsia folks doing...to create the beautiful stuff
    they do...?
