Mother of Pearl Plate with Hermit Crab

Mother-of-pearl is one of nature's rarer, more temperamental iridescent treasures, difficult to find and complex to work with, with each piece presenting its own delightful nuances and proclivities. This enchanting serving plate, which hosts an inquisitive hermit crab crafted of silver and shell, required 4 weeks of detailed precision work by the skilled artisan who created it. Like a jewel for your tabletop (or anywhere you choose to display it), this piece measures approximately 8" x 9 4/5" x 2".
