Khatam Kari consists of the production of incrustation patterns (generally star-shaped), with thin sticks of wood (ebony, teak, Ziziphus, orange, rose), brass (for golden parts), camel bones (white parts). Rods are assembled in triangular beams, themselves made and glued in a strict order to create a cylinder, 70 cm in diameter, whose cross-section is the central motif: a six-branch star included in a hexagon and then plated and glued on the object to be decorated, before lacquer finishing. Ivory, gold or silver can also be used for collection objects.
