I'm curious what the petals are made of.  This will be really cool to see when it is strung.

The red is a custom-cast acrylic that includes ground up mother of pearl in the mix. The pink is a reconstituted stone, but I'm sorry I don't recall which.   Here's a couple of shots with the fingerboard inlay completed:
