Ukulele Mosaic Rosette #5 - Tenor/Baritone Size

Inlaying a rosette is one of the easiest ways to add tasteful embellishment to a ukulele.

In the past luthiers had to make mosaic rosettes from scratch in a lengthy process. These readymade rosettes are an easy way to get the same effect in a fraction of the time.

A circular trench should be cut into the top to accept the rosette. The best way to cut this is using a Dremel rotary tool with our Soundhole/Rosette jig and a Downcut router bit.

Always wait to receive a rosette before routing the trench in order to get the size more accurate. Before installation seal the inside and outside edges with a light coat of glue or shellac to avoid black dye leaching into the endgrain of the top.
