About Capiz shells:
Capiz shells are actually the outer shells of a marine mollusk, scientifically known as *Placuna placenta*, and are commonly known as the "window oyster." Philippine Capiz shells are named after the town of Capiz, located on the island of Panay in the shallow coastal waters where the shells were originally collected. When cleaned, the shells are naturally translucent, and when painted, they offer a stunning dialogue of light and color.
