Mother-of-Pearl Inlay
What you seeA pair of cupboard doors in dark wood inlaid with mother-of-pearl: an eight-fold star pattern with large stars and kite-shaped pieces in pale iridescent shell, small four-pointed stars of tortoiseshell and pieces of bone, under small panels with shell cartouches and a border of inlaid lozenges.
What it meansMother-of-pearl, the lustrous inner layer of certain shells, was cut into small pieces and set into wood across the Islamic world. Ottoman craftsmen used it for doors, Qur'an stands, chests and thrones, often with tortoiseshell and ivory.
Where it worksA quiet, glowing plate for a bedroom, a dining room or a dark corner.
