A beautiful dining chair where the backrest is made of Tahitian Mother of Pearl Shell marquetry. The process of marquetry involves carefully cutting this exotic material that can be very delicate, into small rectangular strips where the size and shape has to be identical. Then it gets in-laid one by one a vertical fashion to create the pattern where the colours gradate from lighter yellowish beige to black.
