Pearl used as jewellery ornament is passé, the precious material is now part of ornamentation in home interiors! Says Milan Khakhar, MD, Solid Stone Company, who has introduced the novelty, “The versatility of the Mother of Pearl (retailed by Stone Source) gives you the freedom to decide where you would like to use it. From floorings to décor furnishings to table tops, one can use it everywhere.”

Patrons of art in interiors have always used semi-precious stones wherein the design throws in an exceptional makeover. Mother of Pearl is one of the prominent of semi-precious stones and Stone Source has both white and black varieties to suit your colour tones and matching parameters too.

According to folklore, Mother of Pearl is used for soothing strained nerves. The Mother of Pearl’s iridescence comes from its many fine layers of aragonite, and the physical interaction that occurs between the aragonite crystals and light waves.

To enhance the look or give a unique touch to your home, Stone Source also provides you with a host of accessories and decorative products such as vases, strips and borders for walls and mirrors, or even fittings and fixtures such as knobs and pulls, all created with semi-precious stones.
