I took many pictures with flash and without flash to have a variety of pictures for you to see. There are no breaks, cracks or chips in this shell. It's all natural mother of pearl.

This exquisite piece is a rare find from the early 19th century. The hand-engraved mother of pearl nacre shell depicts a beautiful town of Bethlehem, crafted with exceptional attention to detail.
