Shellstone
Specifications
Mother Of Pearl is a valuable material obtained from the inner layer of the shell of some mollusks, especially oysters.
Its main colour is iridescent pearly white, but it can also be black, brown and yellow.
Thanks to its hardness, it is used for the manufacture of various objects and for inlays to decorate surfaces.
On the market, this organic gemstone is characterised by several factors, such as the origin (eg Tahitian mother of pearl, East Indies), size and thickness of shells and colour.
