About the Design

Grout Colour Sample

The original of this image shows the mosaic design at approx. 1 pixel to 1.5 mm, including grout lines and tile colour blocks (see the colour note below) but has been adjusted in size by your browser to fit on the page, blurring the detail.

You should see a grid of coloured squares representing the tiles, with sharp coloured lines between representing the grout lines, but sometimes your browser may not scale the design very well at some zoom/scale factors, either blurring the lines, missing some lines out or showing them at differing thicknesses. IE9 is particularly poor at downscaling mosaic images, so shortly after page loading the picture may be replaced with a lower resolution version.

To see the original, click on the picture which should open the mosaic design at original size in a new browser window or tab. You can then use the scrollbars and your browser's zoom function to view the design - you can always save the original picture to your computer to view in your imaging software.

Our Mosaics

Our objective is to bring the beauty of mosaic art into more homes and offices than ever before, by offering a wide range of affordable designs available in a choice of formats and sizes.

To this end we have invested extensively in computer assisted mosaic design technologies, developing our own specialist algorithms and methods to optimise the selection of tile colours.

Our mosaic designs use the traditional "Opus Regulatum" style of tiles laid out in a regular pattern, like squares on a chess board.

Our "Framed Mosaic Wall Art" is prepared using the "Indirect" method, where tiles are first laid out in the design and attached by their top face to a removable transparent film. The sheets can then be pressed, tiles down, into the tile adhesive, transferring chunks of the design in one go, maintaining the tile layout. Once the tile adhesive is set, the transparent film sheets can be easily peeled from the tiles. With the film removed, the tiles can now be grouted to complete the mosaic.

All our mosaic designs are specially made to order - once your order is received we will maintain ongoing contact with you, to review/check your requirements, update you on progress, advise you on delivery etc.

Colour Note:

The colours shown are for guide use only.

It is impossible to give an accurate indication of the finished mosaic colours: the tile colour shades vary from batch to batch, supplier to supplier (as is common with all fired glass). Most have a speckled appearance, with very small white(ish) specks and bubbles, that affects the colour shade when seen from a distance. Vitreous tiles are semi-transparent/translucent/reflective, which varies in extent from colour to colour, so the colour shade seen is also affected by lighting conditions, adhesive and grout colour, etc. Finished grout colours will also vary due to mixing, texture, application or batch variations.

These factors make it very difficult to match a tile or grout colour to an accurate computer colour definition. Even then, the colour you see on your screen will not be exactly the same as we see on our screens, due to differences in browser, display and screen settings.

We have gone to great lengths to indicate reasonably realistic tile/grout colours based on the colour impression from a distance under good light, when fixed with white adhesive and light-medium grey grout.

As with all mosaics, the artistry is in the overall picture impression, rather than the specific use of colours.

Finish Quality Note:

This is a Home Studio crafted product.

Every due care and attention is taken to ensure a high quality product with a professional finish. However, as with any Home Studio crafted product more minor irregularities are to be expected than for a mass produced factory item.

Many of the tiles (despite their factory manufacture) have slightly varying shapes, irregular edges or minor edge chips. As part of our quality control procedures, all tiles are visually checked prior to product assembly. Some irregular edged tiles can be ground back to shape, while broken, deformed, excessively chipped or irregular edged tiles are replaced.

The corner joints of the aluminium edging, while fairly discreet, are not as perfect as a factory produced item.

Tile mounting and grouting are carried out by hand, inevitably resulting in minor variations in tile positions, depth and orientation, grout lines etc.

Such variations and irregularities only add to the artistic charm of our completed mosaics.

Ordering Note:

This product is made to order, as one example of a fully customizable mosaic range.

In placing an order, you are instructing us to proceed with the provision of a design, procurement, manufacturing and assembly process that results in the delivered product, such process to begin immediately.

As such, The Consumer Protection (Distance Selling) Regulations 2000 do not apply.

Delivery and Prices:

Standard Delivery is Free to most of the UK Mainland including remote areas, with the exception of the "Scottish Highland" postcodes: IV, KW1-14, PA34, PA37-39, PH19-40, PH41 sector 4, PH49-50. For the Scottish Highlands and Islands, Channel islands, Isle of Wight, Isle of Man etc. please select 'United Kingdom (Highlands and Islands)'.

For other countries/regions please select your country/region from the list below to see an adjusted guide price to your country/region.

Packaging and delivery can be substantial part of the mosaic price and is quite complex to quantify (we have included standard costs for trackable economy delivery by a major internation carrier).

It can be a lot cheaper if you can arrange your own transport - there are a wide range of international carriers (TNT/DHL/FedEx etc), independent couriers, parcel brokers, freight forwarders - by shopping around you can organise collection (by arrangement) and delivery cheaper than we can. Select 'United Kingdom (Collect Only - Packed for Carriage)' to see the savings possible.

For (mainly UK) customers who can organise collection (by arrangement) either in person or by others, where the mosaic can be suitably handled in transit (ie door-to-door couriers/movers used to providing protection for fragile goods), further savings can be made by collecting the mosaic unpackaged - select 'United Kingdom (Collect Only - Not Packed)' to see the savings possible.
