House and Garden
When Aryma’s in-house marquetry artist Szilvia Dorogi began this 2 x 1 metre decorative panel, her intention was to give it a painterly feel. It was crafted over a period of three months, in varying shades of bolivar – a type of tulipwood, selected for its porous reception to dyes. The result is a bold use of colour, in a design that has a classical feel.


Superyacht Design
Featured on the front cover of SuperyachtDesign Q19, the panel combines eight different veneers and five types of exotic shell, including mother-of-pearl.
“Although the fragile nature of mother-of-pearl makes it a challenge to work with, the hidden tones and colours of pink and green, which change in different light, also make it one of the most appealing materials to use,” says Gage. “It lends each inlay its own unique character.”

Superyacht Design
On a calendar already saturated with superyacht conferences, boat shows, award ceremonies and symposiums, finding an event that offers something new and valuable is difficult. Rather than being just another superyacht event or an egotistical display of wealth and excess, SuperyachtDESIGN Week was a very welcome change. A true celebration of design, it brought together for the first time top designers, suppliers, showrooms and industry figureheads to discuss the present and look to the future of our industry. Running from 18 to 20 June, the inaugural SuperyachtDESIGN Week was a platform for debate, discussion, reflection and networking for the creative minds and industry influencers behind the oceans’ floating palaces. SYD looks at key points from the sessions and talks to some of the artisans that helped make this week such a success.

The Yacht Report
The Eighth Wonder of the World
Editor in Chief of The Yacht Report, Martin H Redmayne tours the new 68m Feadship-built motor yacht Lady Christine and reports back with an enthusiastic critique ‘…surrounding the remarkable main interior staircase were two marquetry murals that take your breath away. One might assume that they were partially painted; such is the detail that has been employed to create them. On closer inspection, you can see the use of microscopic pieces of coloured and natural coloured wood combining in a series of images that create a curved (yes a curved) masterpiece that cossets the atrium.’ ‘However, the central feature that inspires with awe striking magnitude is the incredible representation of the Taj Mahal.’

‘…Aryma have built up a world class reputation as leading exponents of marquetry…’
‘…extraordinary marquetry pictures which are the talking point of the whole yacht…’
