Porcelain Tiles - Fireplace surround
These clients were plagued by a fireplace that looked like a mausoleum – Black with dark unattractive tiles in the fireplace surround. They wanted something light and airy to lift this sitting room.
I made these tiles to fit in the fireplace surround. They were placed on top of the original tiles. I wanted the overall effect of the tiles to give the impression of a summer meadow.
The fireplace was painted by Geoff Osler and he created the faux marble effect around the main body.

I can offer consultation by phone, email or even a personal meeting at our shop in St Leonards. Between us we can create something really personal to you.
If you are thinking of commissioning some tiles I can help you choose colours, textures and sizes based on your specific needs. Your design can reflect your favourite flowers or plants from your garden.
If you have a theme that you are working with I can advise on choice of textures and colour matching.
This porcelain tile fireplace surround has been inlaid with grasses collected from the local countryside and glazed blue.
What textures or colours would you choose for your tiles?
