Flora and Fauna

February 21, 2021February 24, 2021

This was a commission completed in 2020, and is a mixture of three ranges: British Wildlife, Colour Birds and Wildflowers.
It has now been turned into a new range: Flora and Fauna tiles

It is a good example of a customer choosing a mix of tiles from different ranges, along with two corner motifs, and then choosing one colour (CN Green) to unify the tiles. Everything we make is painted to order, so every commission is different.

We enjoy working with our customers to make sure they get just the tiles they want.

These tiles were recently featured in Country Life magazine.

We regularly paint flora and fauna from specific parts of the world. At the moment we are painting some tiles for Ontario with beavers, deer, moose and bears. Below is a panel of Scottish creatures for a castle on the east coast of Scotland. Thistle corner motifs were designed specifically. Coincidentally the customer also went for a green theme.

We are currently working on a commission for Ontario, so will soon be adding Moose, Caribou, Beavers and Racoons to this range.

Handmade at Kew

WE are slowly getting back to normal after a great time at Handmade at Kew, held in Kew Gardens in London. Lots of sales and plenty of interest, so we are hoping to get some Chinoiserie commissions from it. Our dearest wish is to be able to tile a whole room one day! The next show we are doing is Made By Hand in Cardiff City Hall 2 – 4th November 2018.
