CAPIZ SHELL & TEAK DOOR, PHILIPPINES
A beautiful antique Capiz shell & Teak door or screen from the Philippines. Measures 52'' H x 21.75'' W x 1.25'' D. Capiz comes from the shell of the Placuna placenta mollusk, which is native to the seas of Southeast Asia, specifically Indonesia and the Philippines. The mollusks are edible, which means fisherman can harvest them for their meat and reduce waste by reusing their shells for décor and handicrafts.
