Abalone Transition Mirror

2020

Abalone shell veneer is meticulously stabilized with an aluminum backer and then UV bonded to glass, a combination of nature and engineering.

To achieve the lustrous mirror surface, we introduce a silver nitrate solution forging a chemical bond, transforming the ordinary into the extraordinary. With a deliberate touch, we mix a precise scarcity of silver solution, this technique gives rise to a mesmerizing organic edge, gracefully fading into the clarity of the glass—a harmonious union of natural beauty and craftsmanship.
