ROSE PEACOCK

The Peacock Collection is truly at the summit of mother-of-pearl art that fully expresses the exquisite rainbow colors shimmering of the nacre. Using different types of mother-of-pearl harvested from natural sources such as abalones and clams to maximize the iridescence while at the same time creating depth and perspective. The employment of various sophisticated mother-of-pearl art techniques including coloring, carving and inlaying nacre strips as fine as threads create highly elaborate motifs of the collection.
