Solid Shell Blanks: White MOP Select Color
Classic bright white mother of pearl with a clean, mostly plain face and flashes of natural iridescence. Some pieces show soft natural figure or subtle rainbow flashes when the light moves across them.
Traditional solid-shell blanks: random usable shapes and sizes, uniform thickness with no taper, perfectly flat, hand-trimmed of bad edges and corners. Each blank is checked free of worm holes, cracks, dead areas, discoloration and hollow spots — the weight you pay for is fully usable inlay stock. Sold by the ounce; it takes about 1–2 ounces to inlay a typical guitar or banjo neck.

Working with this shell
Saw or jeweler's-saw your shapes, rout the cavity to match, and glue in. Thicker blanks suit curved surfaces; thinner blanks cut faster and need shallower routs on flat work. Inlay gold and black MOP as deeply as possible — their color layer is thin and sands away fast. Always wear a respirator: shell dust is hazardous to breathe.
Please note: Hand-selected for exceptional iridescence running all the way through the blank.
