Pearlized Capiz shells are found in the crystal waters of the Pacific Ocean. These translucent shells have been fashioned entirely by hand to creeate these charming decorative suncatchers.

Originally used by Spanish colonists as stained glass for church windows during the Sixteenth Century, they soon appeared in the windows of wealthy home owners.

These delicate looking shells are bound in copper and brass, electroplated and then hand painted, creating a unique expression f light, form, and color.

Designed and finished on The Island as a truly unique eye catching memento or gift from Paradise.

The Capiz seashells are commercially farmed much like oysters and clams. Therefore, the mollusk shell is a good byproduct with no consequent impact on the environment.
