THE WORLD’S LEADING MOTHER OF PEARL ATELIER

Creating surfaces, collections and bespoke commissions in one of nature’s rarest materials.

Founded in England in 2010, Siminetti is a specialist Mother of Pearl atelier working with architects, interior designers and private clients internationally.
The atelier creates Mother of Pearl mosaics, surfaces, feature panels and bespoke commissions for exceptional residences, hospitality, wellness, superyachts and private aviation.

ONE MATERIAL. EXTRAORDINARY POSSIBILITIES.

Mother of Pearl has a character that cannot be replicated by a manufactured surface.

Light, tone and iridescence shift continually with viewpoint, while natural variation ensures that no two pieces are quite the same.

Since 2010, Siminetti has focused on understanding this material and developing what can be created with it.

The material remains constant.
What can be created with it does not.

COLLECTIONS AND COMMISSIONS

Siminetti’s established collections provide architects and designers with a developed palette of Mother of Pearl mosaic tiles, veneers and feature panels.

Alongside them, the atelier creates applications developed specifically for individual projects.

From architectural surfaces and furniture to pools, wellness interiors, superyachts and private aircraft, the starting point may be an established material, a particular geometry or an idea that has not yet been made.

FOUNDED ON MATERIAL KNOWLEDGE

Siminetti was founded by Simon Powell in 2010 following 12 years within the mosaic industry.

He recognised that Mother of Pearl offered possibilities far beyond its traditional use and set out to build a company around understanding and developing this single material.

That focus continues to define Siminetti today.

AN INTERNATIONAL ATELIER

From England, Siminetti works internationally across private residences, hospitality, wellness, superyachts and private aviation.

Its Mother of Pearl has been developed for projects including The OWO, Renaissance and Raffles Al Areen.

FROM MATERIAL TO COMMISSION

Every project begins with the material.

Colour, variation, scale, geometry and application are developed around the architecture and the way Mother of Pearl will respond to light, movement and viewpoint.

For individual commissions, Siminetti works with project teams from early material exploration through to sampling, development and final specification.

MADE FOR NOWHERE ELSE

Some projects begin with an established Siminetti surface. Others begin with an idea that has never been made before.

For projects where Mother of Pearl becomes part of the identity of the environment itself, our team can work with you from early material exploration through to final specification.
