Bespoke Hand Painted Wall Tiles

Your vision, our expertise

Bespoke hand painted tiles

At Marlborough Tiles, we believe that truly special interiors begin with a personal touch. That’s why we offer a bespoke hand painted tile service where your ideas, whether inspired by a cherished photograph, treasured artwork, a fabric pattern or an illustration, are brought to life in exquisite detail by our team of expert hand painters.

Each commission is a collaboration. Whether you're a private homeowner seeking a centrepiece for your kitchen or bathroom, or an interior designer working on a finely detailed scheme, our bespoke tile painting service invites you to create something utterly individual, entirely timeless, and beautifully handmade.

An artisan process, rooted in tradition

Every tile begins its journey in our Wiltshire studio, where time-honoured techniques meet artistic expertise. Our highly skilled team of artists work by hand, painting each design onto the raw, unfired glaze, one brushstroke at a time.

We work with a variety of colour palettes, from classic monochrome to rich, multi-coloured designs, and paint on a selection of white and off-white tile bases, available in a range of sizes to suit your project.

Each piece is fired in our kiln to ensure a finish that is as durable as it is beautiful.

Beautifully personal in any space

Our bespoke hand-painted tiles can be created for any space in the home. Clients often commission:

Fireplace surrounds that showcase patterns or images in delicate detail
Kitchen range cooker panels that become focal points of warmth and character
Back splashes with motifs that reflect personal style or heritage
Bathroom and shower features that bring artistry to everyday rituals

Whatever your vision, we will work closely with you to ensure that every tile reflects your unique style and the spirit of your space.

Frequently asked questions

How long does a bespoke tile commission take?

Timelines vary depending on the scale and complexity of the work, but we will always provide clear timeframes before we begin.

How much does a bespoke tile or panel cost?

The cost will vary depending on the quantity of tiles or size of the panel required, as we calculate our costs based on the complexity of the design and how long it will take to paint. We will give you an idea of the cost before you place your order, on receipt of the details and the design you want.

Can I choose the tile size and finish?
Yes. We offer a curated range of sizes, finishes and base glaze colours, including classic white and gentle off-white tones, on which to create your bespoke design.

Do you provide design mock-ups?
Absolutely. We work closely with clients at every stage and can provide detailed sketches or sample tiles before the final painting begins.

Can you paint designs across multiple tiles, like a mural?

Yes. We can paint designs onto single tiles, or larger images across multiple tiles to create a panel or mural. These types of designs are perfect to sit behind a range cooker, in a shower space or as a large backsplash in a kitchen or bathroom. We can also create patterns that run vertically or horizontally, to be used as borders or frames in your space.

Can you ship bespoke tiles internationally?

Of course! We have lots of international customers, including in the USA, Canada, Ireland, Europe and even Australia! We can communicate with you via email or video calls - whatever is easier - and ship tiles carefully and safely to your home country to be installed.
