Hey Bryan,
Pearl inlay is where they carve into a piece of wood, for example they care the shape of a butterfly then, in its place they then carve a butterfly out of a sheet of mother of pearl (beautiful shells from the deep sea) and then press it into the carved wood with some glue. Then they paint a clear coat of lacqor over it and make it all shiny.. That is a peral inlay.
I hope that helps?
