>...I do recall that mother of pearl is bad news to work with though... >Stephen Birkett... What about some of the accordians that have what appears to be Mother of Pearl on the keys? Or was this some sort of look-a-like material? However, if it is genuine, would not this negate some of the bad news concept? I've always thought of Mother of Pearl as rare and somewhat expensive material and would not customarily be used in volume situations such as piano key coverings. Just some more Thanksgiving Day speculation on the subject. Keith McGavern Registered Piano Technician Oklahoma Chapter 731 Piano Technicians Guild USA
