Mother of pearl (nacre) is an organic-inorganic composite iridescent (reflecting different colors when light plays across the surface) material. It is a strong substance produced by certain mollusks as an inner layer of their shells or as a pearl. It is used for the purpose of decoration, as nacre can be tinted/dyed different colors and cut into various shapes. Leading Watchmakers like Rolex use mother-of-pearl as dials for their watches.
