Everyone loves a piano. They're beautiful works of art; true conversation pieces.We love them so much, that we've got three of them right now at Bunch Auctions coming up in our June regular auction and Catalog. If you decide to place a bid on this gorgeous Steinway or one of our others, remember not to leave your old piano in the dust. No one ever wants to throw out their old piano, even when it has become non-functional. Instead of kicking it to the curb, teach that old piano some new tunes.

Bula Marketrija (angl. - Boulle marquetry, fr. -Marqueterie Boulle, vāc. - Boulle marketerie) Uzliekot divas dažāda materiāla loksnes vienu otrai virsū vienlaicīgi izgriežot vai izzāģējot fona un ornamenta detaļas iegūst divus pretējus mozaīkas komplektus. Šo tehniku ieviesa franču mēbeļnieks Andrē Šarls Buls (André-Charles Boulle) (1642-1732). Viņš radīja mozaīkas no bruņurupuča bruņām, ragu kaula, misiņa uz melnkoka vai cita koka fona. Bula Marketrijā izmantoja arī alvu, ziloņkaulu, perlamutru. Bula marketrijas pirmsākumi meklējami 17 gs. Florencē, bet līdz pilnībai šo tehniku noveda Andrē Šarls Buls 18 gs. sākumā, kurš radījis visnepārspējamākos šedevrus šajā tehnikā. Mainoties modei Fancijā un citur Eiropā bula intarsijas tika aizmirstas, nedaudz pamānāma bula tehnikas izmantošana redzama klasicisma periodā 18 gs. beigās. Vairāk kā pusgadsimtu (19 gs. pirmajā pusē) šī tehnika tika aizmirsta pilnībā. Atdzimšanu bula marketrija piedzīvoja no 1860 līdz 1890 gadam - Napoleona III laikā Francijā. Lielākā daļa mēbeļu kolekcionāru apritē ir tieši no šā perioda, par ko arī šis fotostāsts. Маркетри Буль (англ. - Boulle marquetry, фр. -Marqueterie Boulle, нем. - Boulle marketerie)- техника, названная по имени Анри Шаря Буля (André-Charles Boulle) (1642-1732), разработавшего метод вставки латуни в черепаховую пластину или эбеновое дерево или наоборот. Буль создавал мозаичные наборы из латуни на фоне панциря черепахи, рога, из латуни на фоне черного или другого дерева. Эта техника, получившая название маркетри Буля или мозаика Буля, заключается в том, что из двух наложенных один на другой листов разных материалов одновременно вырезают или выпиливают лобзиком элементы фона и вставок. Вставляя в прорези первого листа вставки из второго, получают два противоположных по цвету набора. В мозаике Буля использовали также олово, слоновую кость, перламутр. Панцирь черепахи с обратной стороны, как правило, подкрашивали клеевой краской в красный (реже в черный) цвет. Процесс применялся в образцах особо качественной мебели, обычно в парном варианте, с конца XVII веа.
