Siminetti’s new Mother-of-Pearl series is a mosaic collection with a conscience. Made in 16 colours including this striking Jade dyed pearl, the production uses mother-of-pearl shells sourced using an eco-friendly process from Poyang lake in China, Asia’s largest freshwater lake.

Available in four shapes and sizes, the tesserae are resistant to sunlight and weather damage, so they’re suitable for spas as well as walls and floors, and are sealed with resin, making them extremely long-lasting.

The collection costs from £225 per sq metre; the company also offers a bespoke service.
