After a bit of research on inlay techniques for stone , I've decided to use Turquoise and Lapis to fill the voids in the birthday buckeye burl I got.
The process isn't too hard (looking) seal the cavity with lacquer so it won't absorb the CA , pour in the crushed stone , saturate with thin CA (the gel won't permeate well) let set for 24hrs , then sand flush . Repeat for any voids with finer grain dust.
the mockup looks promising.
