GAURI KOHLI 5 in. x 7 in. Rustic Ash Gray Jodhpur Mother of Pearl Picture Frame

THE TIMELESS ART OF MOP INLAY No animal or living organisms was harmed in the making of this beautiful decorative box. Inlay is the technique of inserting pieces of contrasting material into depressions made on a base object. The production of MOP inlay furniture and decorative items is a three step process and requires up to a month to create each piece. First the fragments of mother of pearl shells are shaped delicately. Then these intricate shapes are affixed onto a MDF frame in a detailed pattern. After this, resin is filled around the shell shapes to craft the background. The pearl pieces are offset by striking color of the resin to create an exotic looking rustic piece of home decor.
