Nacre, also known as mother of pearl, is the iridescent inner lay of shells and it also makes up the outer coating of pearls. South Korean design studio FICT (From Craft to Industry) explores the harmony of irregular pattern and different materials by casting crystal resin with nacre. The results are those beautiful coasters, tray sets and this table (which I first spotted at SightUnseen).
