Just back from a woodworking tour around Japan.  You may be suprised but I thought of you on a visit to Hakone to see their version of parquetry - Yosegi-zaiku .   This is their 72 move puzzel box.  The way they do the parquetry is mind boggling, then theres the puzzel box.  But guess you will be familiar with them, though if not then check this link out https://www.hakonemaruyama.com/
