Mother-of-Pearl: A Tradition in Asian Lacquer
Online presentation of a 2006-2007 exhibition.

This installation traces the evolution of this astonishing technology in East Asia, India, and Thailand. It explores the importance of lacquer decorated with minute pieces of mother-of-pearl in interregional trade from the 12th to the 19th century, and the development of global trade, particularly in works made in India and Japan, in the late 16th and early 17th centuries."
