White Mother of Pearl is the most common inlay material for the fingerboards of guitars and other stringed instruments. It has a white or light silver colour with a natural iridescence and a subtle beauty.
1.25mm thick stock is good for both fingerboard and headstock inlays. Thicker material is better for fingerboard inlays as the radius of the fingerboard will not make the edges too thin. There is enough in one ounce for an elaborate inlay.
The blanks can be cut to shape using a jewellers saw. The inlays should be installed into a cavity made by routing or chiseling.
Always wear a dust mask when sanding and cutting pearl as the dust may be hazardous if inhaled.
