Absolutely love it!
Pros: โBeautiful Look: The design is beautiful, with vibrant colors that shine. โValue: Great value for the money. โInspiration: I am new to this and found it very inspiringโso many ideas! โUsage: Simple to use if you stick to big designs. โCons & Adjustments: โChipping: It chips easily if you use scissors (which is what I did). โDetail Work: Difficult to do small, detailed cut-outs. โRecommendation: Use a cutting blade instead of scissors; it probably won't chip as much. โNote: I skipped the provided tape and used resin to seal it instead.

Abalone shell inlay
This abalone shell veneer is stunning. Great for all kinds of crafts I use my shell for my resin art and jewelry making. The back is adhesive and sticks very well. It scores and breaks perfectly. I will be buying this again in other colors.

FRAGILE
Arrived broken even though placed between wooden pieces. I can now only make 1 item instead of 2. Very very fragile! Hopefully there is adhesive on it & it cuts easily. Very pretty color.

Beautiful item hard to cut
This is an absolutely amazing item and looks beautiful in resin artwork. Problem is cutting it to have straight lines without chipping or breaking. Will order again in the future.

Very thin and britle
Ok so I just got the Abalone sheet. It is as described. It has vibrant colors and its Abalone. NOW: the sheet is extremely thin and extremely. The abalone is extremely britle. It breeaks off in mini pieces at the least uneven touch. Its like working with a very thin potato chip . I gave it a three star because the extreme fragility of the product is not explained. When you go to cut it, it breaks in minute pieces. Be careful because its very thin. Very poor instructions in the insert. It is very nicely packaged though. Hope this helps.
