The Art of Kumiko - Learn to Make Beautiful Panels by Hand by Matt Kenney
This is a very accessibly written introduction to the traditional Japanese art of kumiko, using small strips of wood to make beautiful decorative panels. The panels can stand on their own as artistic pieces or be incorporated into furniture and more. Kenney goes into a lot of detail on how anyone can create kumiko from start to finish with minimal tools and no experience, and also includes instructions on how to make 10 larger panels as well.
