material Most of our shells come from molluscs that are harvested for food in coastal communities (hatchet shell, troca shell). Instead of discarding them, we encourage their collection and cleaning for inlay. This supplements fishing incomes. Some shells have traditional decorative value (capiz, abalone). Where this is the case, we are conscious of the risk of over-harvesting and aim actively to manage this. The shells are inlaid and left unsealed so that their natural pearlescence is unspoiled. We enhance the beauty of the shell by various methods: selecting for colour, cutting in different shapes, cracking and crushing.
