In 1991, at a landmark sale of the Messer Collection of English furniture at the same auction house, a mahogany and ebony-inlaid commode made in the neo-Classical style by Chippendale for his fellow Yorkshireman, Rowland Wynne, fetched £935,000, an auction high for the maker.

At Bazerdzan, I browsed chic designs marrying modern cuts with traditional crafts: thick zinc bracelets inlaid with Bosnian song lyrics by the local label Werkstatt; cotton wrap blouses with graphic prints from Plus Minus; and suede espadrilles from the New York- and Sarajevo-based label Intuitva.

She sets the table with her Noritake wedding china and her collection of contemporary pottery, but the table itself is the showpiece: Shipped to Chicago as a wedding present in 1983, it is inlaid with semiprecious stones by descendants of the artisans who built the Taj Mahal.

"I love the idea of telling a story with a piece of furniture," says Mabille, who was inspired by a chestnut velvet sofa inlaid with a patchwork of tapestries designed by the architect Pierre Chareau for the historic 1930s Paris townhouse known as the Maison de Verre.

The brutish industrial aesthetic of the original Chromebook Pixel has been somewhat softened by the pale, blue-white glass, which is inlaid into the back of the screen, and an "advanced silicone" (which looks like glass) that flanks the glass trackpad, where it successfully acts as a palm rest.

Eat A few stories above a blessedly calm Midtown street, the elevator doors opened and I stared straight at a Garuda — fearsome mythic eagle, mount of Lord Narayana, reflection of the divine power of the kings of Thailand — inlaid into the seal of the Royal Thai Consulate General.

Its most famous work — a luxurious binding for a (non-miniature) copy of the Rubáiyát of Omar Khayyám, which took two and a half years to make and had a front cover decorated with three golden peacocks and inlaid with 1,000 jewels — sadly went down with the Titanic.

But inside the couple's airy East Village apartment, which smells faintly of Assam tea and glints with eye-catching Indian regional crafts — miniature caskets inlaid with mother-of-pearl, hand-woven kauna grass baskets, carved wooden spirit masks collected on their travels through Rajasthan, Kerala and Goa — everything sparkles with light.

Here (much as in nature), nothing exactly matches, but everything fits: a Kashmiri silk bedspread embroidered with butterflies, a dresser inlaid with camel bone, lamps jerry-built from vases, chairs found decades ago at the Chelsea flea market in New York, their cracked Lucite seats replaced with weather-hardy rattan.

The PlayStation Move controllers are painfully limited compared to either Oculus Touch or the HTC Vive remotes, simply because their interface is a bad fit for VR. They're pimpled with four miniscule face buttons that are almost pointless for anything but menu selections, with inlaid, difficult-to-find options buttons along the sides.

At the end of the show we find a bronze caldron, made somewhere in the Greek world during the Augustan years: its basic form is old-style but from its surface a little satyr pops out like a jack-in-the-box, snaps his fingers and smiles a gleaming silver inlaid smile.

When the desk clerk learned we were celebrating our anniversary, he upgraded us to a corner executive suite with two floor-to-ceiling windows fronted by wrought iron balustrades inlaid with a gold letter A, and a living room outfitted with a second flat-screen TV and an L-shaped leather sofa.

Mr. Colby took the apartment down to the plaster, then refurbished every square inch to a fare-thee-well: He installed recessed lighting; made the tongue-and-groove cabinets in the kitchen; carved out his-and-hers closets, complete with inlaid mirrors; and conjured a coffered ceiling for the doll-sized entryway.

There are two antique fireplaces; a standing clock from England circa 1884; Italian glass panels from the late 19th century, delicately painted with roses; a player piano from 1890s Belgium; porcelain "carpets" inlaid in the original wood-plank floor; tin ceilings; and wood panels from Hope Castle in Castleblayney, Mr. McCole's hometown.

His masonry of cast paint evokes the anonymous laborers that built the Americas, from those who inlaid the Mayan mosaics, to the slaves who built the White House, to the bricklayers who colored the mortar the way Frank Lloyd Wright wanted, to the welders who erected Santiago Calatrava's transit hub in Lower Manhattan.

In "The House of Fear," from 1937-1938, for example, while "walking in a certain neighborhood," the central figure is suddenly stopped by a horse who demands she come with him to a strange house, filled with creatures in ecclesiastical dress, to see the "beautiful inlaid floor" made of turquoise, stuck together with gold.

The idea came to him after the Les Ateliers Courbet founder Melanie Courbet brought a rotating tray to one of Thompson's so-called "food salons"; they partnered on a set of handcrafted round, black-and-white inlaid Corian meant to resemble the strobe disks employed by D.J.s to ensure a perfect 33 and 1/3 r.p.m.

This revelation — of both the art and the artifice of the designer's hand — is also a recognition of one of the key components of Mongiardino's work: Despite the apartment's stellar architecture, almost none of what can be seen is real, at least in the sense of being quarried or crafted centuries ago or inlaid by Renaissance workmen.

A quick search on social media will reveal the words in both English and Greek—almost always blazoned beneath the stylized Corinthian helmet—inlaid into gun handles, tattooed on skin, and pressed on T-shirts, key chains, pens, bumper stickers, and patch after patch after patch, usually velcroed onto tactical packs carried by military and civilian alike.

"We are hoping to commission a local artisan to create a fitting memorial to mark the site of Fanny's final resting place — ideally a carved bench with an inlaid stone or metal plaque with some fitting words and Fanny's portrait," Turner stated, adding that any additional funds will go towards another bench at the nearby Graylingwell's Chapel.

Also on view are works by Oscar Hadwiger (1891–1989), a carpenter, inventor and tool-and-die maker who, in his retirement, skillfully crafted ornate towers, churches and other structures using marquetry (inlaid wood) techniques, and a mixed-media painting, along with drawings in pencil, watercolor and charcoal on paper, by the Alabaman Thornton Dial (1928–2016).

Inside, the three-story building opens up to a bright, light-filled lobby with classy navy-blue wall accents, oversized historic photographs and an art display that includes Ohlone stones discovered during excavation, and beautiful hardwood floors that are inlaid with a darker "ghost pattern" to show the original floor plan of the military company offices and artillery storage rooms.

The whitish one in the dining area, beneath the monumental table with its angled underside of silver-plated brass, is inlaid flush with the floor; others, like the ones in the library and bedroom, where the couple spend their meager downtime under rumpled slate-colored linen sheets drinking Champagne and streaming ''Breaking Bad'' and ''Downton Abbey,'' are raised to define the space more clearly.

I stand in a space and watch an edited, slightly anxious video shows the same space of the salon, an early 20th century sitting room with its Parquet wood floors, its intricately carved marble fireplace, the two outside windows made to block out natural light with inserted panels, the French doors inlaid with patterned glass, and the chandelier with its one hanging lobe in the center of the room like one of the last souvenirs of the Hapsburg empire.

That vocabulary keeps Ammons from too quickly laundering observed detail into symbol, as in a polemical poem about stubbornly nonsymbolic dice: My dice are crystal inlaid with gold and possess spatial symmetry about their centers and mechanical symmetry and are of uniform density and all surfaces have equal coefficients of friction for my dice are not loaded The dice issue the "hard directive" of a new, almost anti-poetical register of description, their essence the sum of their inherent qualities and not their instrumental outcomes.
