HAND PAINTED WITH SKILL & ARTISTRY TOCREATE THESE BEAUTIFUL DELICATEPATTERNED TILESOur team of skilled ceramic artists individually hand paint each design, using the traditional‘majolica’ technique, a right first time process where colour is finely painted onto the chalky surface ofthe glaze using complex brushstrokes before the tile it is fired. Akin to trying to paint on blottingpaper, it takes years of training to achieve the exceptional quality that is our trademark. Each tile issigned by the artist on the reverse of the tile before firing in our kilns.
