It is possible to have a template cut with a thickish vinyl and sandblast it on. A monumental mason could do it.

Iroko is a type of wood similar to teak.
Not that crappy btw, but not as good as teak, either.

Come on Cliff, Iroco is that wonderful little restaurant in Madrid! I believe they are inspired by Asian fusion cuisine, at least that is what my google tells me?
