mother of pearl mosaic tile

When I think of mother-of-pearl I think of jewlry and perhaps even a chandelier or an inlay in furniture, but for some reason I never think of wall tiles and how beautiful and iridescent they can be. It was my client this past week that saw them at Olympia Tile and said 'that's my backsplash' after never having seen anything so beautiful to her eyes. I was thrilled that her eyes lit up the way they did. We are still months away before we get to see these tiles on the wall of my client's kitchen, but I'm dreaming about it already. I hope she doesn't change her mind.

Here are a few examples of how pretty this look really is.
