THE SIMINETTI ATELIER
Bespoke Mother of Pearl Commissions
Surfaces shaped by light, depth and natural variation.
Mother of pearl is a material unlike any other. Its natural iridescence responds to light, shifting in tone and intensity throughout the day. Subtle, immersive and inherently luxurious.
At Siminetti, each surface is conceived as a bespoke commission, designed and realised in collaboration with the world’s leading designers and architects.
A specialist atelier
Siminetti is a specialist mother of pearl atelier, creating bespoke surfaces and commissions where natural shell, craftsmanship and architectural intent are brought together with care.
Our work spans private residences, hotels, spas, aviation and superyachts, environments where materiality defines experience. Each commission is approached individually, ensuring a result that is entirely unique to its setting.
The material
Formed within the shell, mother of pearl possesses a natural depth that cannot be replicated. Layers of nacre reflect and refract light, creating a surface that is never static.
In soft light, it is calm and understated. Under illumination, it becomes luminous, revealing movement, tone and subtle variation.
No two pieces are identical. Each surface carries its own character, shaped by nature and refined by hand.
The commission
A considered process, from concept to completion.
Consultation
Every project begins with a private consultation. We work closely with designers and clients to understand the architectural intent, palette and atmosphere of the space.
Design
Concepts are developed through drawings, samples and material studies. Scale, pattern and tone are refined to ensure the surface integrates seamlessly within the wider scheme.
Realisation
Each piece is handcrafted by skilled artisans using the finest mother of pearl. Surfaces are assembled, finished and prepared to exacting standards.
Delivery
Projects are delivered globally, with guidance provided throughout installation to ensure the integrity of the design is maintained.
Applications
Mother of pearl commissions can be realised across feature walls, spa interiors, furniture, joinery, architectural details and private material statements for residences, hotels, yachts and aviation interiors
Their natural resilience and refined finish make them particularly suited to spaces where light, atmosphere and materiality are paramount.
A considered approach to every project
Each Siminetti commission is approached with discretion, care and respect for the environment it will become part of.
From initial concept through to final installation, our role is to realise surfaces that enhance architecture and elevate experience.
