A refined statement in form
The Kapalua Mother of Pearl Hexagon Tray brings a sculptural elegance to the home, designed to elevate everyday objects through both form and material. Its distinctive silhouette offers a modern edge, while the luminous quality of mother of pearl softens it with a natural, understated glow.
Handcrafted by skilled artisans in the Philippines, each tray is inlaid with carefully selected shell, reflecting light with a quiet iridescence — reminiscent of shifting tides and sunlit water.
