Rare! Set of 7 Boat Dishes in Mother-of-Pearl & Two Cowrie Shell Spoons

  

An unusual set of Mother-of-Pearl dishes, boat shaped with two exquisite Cawrie shell spoons - inlaid with mother of pearl. The dishes are very substantial and strong as well as being ornamental.

It's nice to the touch too as it's entirely natural. It's tactile quality coming from layers of shell giving it a pleasing texture. Add shimmer and gleam to your table with this set of iridescent ocean appeal. The cowrie-shell spoons are extremely eye-catching with their handles inlaid with mother-of-pearl and the gorgeous design of the shell.

They can be passed round the guests for inspection. Perfect for fish dishes, such as caviar, crab, lobster etc but would enhance any table whatever the dish. It will certainly add a conversational element to the table.
