Mother of Pearl Collar Stays

Carved by hand out of a single piece of mother of pearl, very few shells are long enough and flat enough, with consistent colouration throughout, to extract the raw material for this stiffener.

Great care and skill is required in cutting the stay, as a wrong move can crack and shatter the stay. Each piece is unique as the shell that it is carved from.
