Dragons & Vines: MIM’s Telly Award-Winning Documentary
“I want me a PRS guitar with a dragon inlay.” 🎸—Airheads (1994)
Many collectible guitars in the world owe their visual beauty and value to Pearl Works, a team of specialized artists in rural Maryland. Using a wide variety of natural and synthetic materials such as mother-of-pearl, gold, copper, and wood, inlay artists at Pearl Works add dramatic designs to instruments that are aesthetically and musically inspiring.
Watch Dragons and Vines, MIM’s Telly Award-winning documentary that not only highlights stunning inlaid guitar design, but also interviews some of the greatest contemporary North American inlay artists and luthiers behind the imagination and craftsmanship of remarkable guitars.
