Frequently Asked Questions

What is the significance of the Acanthus leaf pattern?

The Acanthus leaf is one of the oldest and most enduring motifs in Western architecture, famously appearing on Corinthian columns in Ancient Greece. In Victorian design, it was used to represent luxury, longevity, and high-status craftsmanship.

Can these borders be used in a shower?

Yes. These borders are made of glazed ceramic and are fully suitable for wet wall areas. Because of the deep relief pattern, we recommend regular cleaning to ensure that soap residue or minerals do not accumulate in the detailed foliage recesses.

How many Acanthus borders do I need for a linear metre?

Each tile is 152mm long. To cover one linear metre, you will need approximately 6.6 tiles. It is always recommended to order an additional 10% to account for cuts and mitring at corners.

Are there matching corner pieces available?

Yes, external "oyster" corners are typically available in the same glazes. These are essential for creating a professional, rounded finish on external corners or window reveals, avoiding the need for complex and difficult mitre cuts.

Will the glaze match my field tiles?

Yes. The Acanthus border is finished using the same translucent glazes as the rest of the Artworks range, ensuring a perfect colour match across your entire project, from field tiles to decorative mouldings.

A Grand Architectural Listello
At 152mm in length, the Acanthus border is designed to align perfectly with Artworks Field Tiles and Artworks Half Tiles. Because of its taller 75mm profile, it makes a significant visual statement, often used as a bold "listello" or accent strip to frame a decorative Kitchen Splashback. The deep gloss finish highlights the intricate veins and curves of the leaf pattern, creating a sophisticated play of light and shadow.

Heritage Quality and Coordination
Available in the iconic translucent glazes of the Artworks collection, these borders are intended to be paired with our Victorian Floor Tiles for an authentic, period-accurate finish. If you are looking for a more geometric decorative border, you might consider the Artworks Greek Key Border. For a hand-crafted, slightly more rustic aesthetic, explore the Winchester Tiles collection. You can find our full range of decorative trims in the Artworks Borders and Mouldings series.
