Granada, Andalusia

What Artesania Gonzalez (Granada Taracea) is known for

Antonio Gonzalez Gil opened this marquetry workshop on Calle Animas in 1920 and it won Spain's national woodworking prize in 1943; his grandchildren run it today. They inlay Alhambra-inspired taracea into chess sets, backgammon boards, humidors and jewellery boxes.
