Each frame is hand-assembled using individual mother of pearl tiles, cut and set into a chevron pattern that shifts between warm ivory, soft grey, and dark brown depending on the light. The natural iridescence of the shell means no two frames read quite the same — a surface that is quietly alive, catching morning and afternoon light in distinct ways. A thin brass-toned inner edge separates the mosaic border from the photo opening cleanly. Available in three sizes to suit a single portrait or a larger print.

Because each tile is hand-placed, small variations in tone and pattern are part of the making — evidence of the hands that set them.
