EXOTIC SHELL INLAY The use of exotic seashells has a long history in the decorative arts. Many have strong visual appeal, are durable and can be cut and polished. The shell’s durability lends itself to veneered surfaces and inlaid accents. The wide variety of types available provides a stimulus to creativity and innovation. At Maitland-Smith we use a variety of shells in traditional and innovative ways. As a complete veneer covering an entire object, either solid or fashioned into patterns, it is labor-intensive with each piece cut, fitted and hand polished. Our artisans have over 30 years experience working with exotic shells and related skills. As a design leader, Maitland-Smith was the first to offer young penshell as a translucent material for lamp shades and other lighting forms. We developed a method of inlaying translucent young crackled penshell onto molded berglass forms creating a new use for a beautiful natural material.
