A brush with tradition

Contemporary Classics
Reef Encounters Panel, Charcoal on Antique White

Softly aged whites and faded earth tones in an aged crackle finish form the basis for the sophisticated English heritage palette of our Contemporary Classics collection.

Classic images are reinterpreted for the modern interior to complement chrome and stainless steel kitchen and bathroom fittings.

Our team of highly skilled ceramic artists individually hand-paint each design to order, using the traditional ‘majolica’ technique – a ‘right first time’ process where paint is brushed onto the chalky surface of the unfired glaze. Akin to trying to paint on blotting paper, our artists have trained for months to achieve the exceptional quality you see here. Each tile is individually signed and dated before being fired.

Crackle glazes – our Contemporary Classics collection has a crackle glaze and requires sealing prior to installation with Marlborough Tiles Crackle Glaze Sealer
