What Galushell Gray Mother of Pearl looks like
Wavy striations with a metallic sheen cover the shell pieces of this slab and give them visual depth. The background is silvery gray, with white pieces and dark gray pieces: that high contrast is the first thing you see in the photo. The surface looks rough, and the mosaic pattern changes moderately from one piece to another.

Questions about Galushell Gray Mother of Pearl
What does MOP Grey Galushell mean?
Both names refer to the same stone. MOP stands for mother of pearl. Galushell is the name the panel is sold under. You can order the slab under either name.
How is it different from Gray Shell Mother of Pearl?
In its photo, Gray Shell Mother of Pearl gathers polygons of dark gray and silver mother of pearl with iridescent highlights. The slab in this photo, on the other hand, has wavy, metallic-looking striations and high contrast between white and dark gray. Both are mother of pearl slabs joined with resin: neither is a single stone.
Can it be used on floors or in the shower?
Neither one. Mother of pearl is one of the soft stones in these panels, and the resin that joins the pieces scratches before the stone does, so foot traffic marks it. In the shower it would also sit under direct water: that is out too.
What care does Galushell Gray Mother of Pearl need?
A soft cloth and water are enough to leave it clean. No solvent-based products and no abrasive cleaners. And nothing hot without a trivet: resin suffers under direct heat.
How does the slab reach my country?
