Each 13 x 13cm tile is individually painted by our talented in-house artists in Devon, featuring bees captured in flight or visiting stylised flowers, their fuzzy bodies and delicate wings rendered with remarkable detail in traditional Delft simplicity. Available in classic Delft Blue or contemporary Charcoal on pristine white backgrounds, these tiles bring the vitality of British gardens indoors, honouring the bee's essential role in nature while adding gentle movement and symbolic richness to interior walls. Part of our exclusive English Delft collection, each hand-painted bee adds natural charm to decorative narratives where British wildlife, cottage gardens, and the sweet abundance of summer create stories of productivity, community, and environmental harmony.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Choose Traditional English Delft Bee Tiles?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe English Delft Bee tile captures one of Britain's most cherished and symbolically rich creatures—the humble bee that has represented industry, community, and sweet rewards throughout human history. From medieval monastery gardens to Victorian apiaries, from wartime \"Dig for Victory\" campaigns to modern conservation efforts, bees have held special place in British hearts. These aren't just insects but symbols of everything admirable: hard work, cooperation, productivity, and the sweet results of dedicated effort. Our artists capture both the bee's physical charm—fuzzy striped body, translucent wings, purposeful flight—and its deeper significance as nature's most celebrated worker.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat distinguishes our Delft Bee tiles is the authentic hand-painted process that brings individual character to each tiny pollinator. Unlike mass-produced transfers or prints, every bee receives personal attention from our Devon artists, who render wings with delicate brushstrokes that suggest transparency, bodies with subtle texture implying fuzz, and flight paths that create movement across static ceramic. Some bees appear in profile showing distinctive shape, others face forward displaying endearing round fuzziness. Many tiles include simple flower elements—the bee's eternal partner—creating complete garden vignettes. No two tiles identical; flight angles vary, wing positions differ, and flower visits change, creating collections where each bee has its own busy personality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 13 x 13cm format maintains historical Delft proportions perfect for creating garden scenes or celebrating individual bees. Traditional Delft Blue connects to centuries of European ceramic tradition while the bee motif adds distinctly British garden character. Contemporary Charcoal offers modern sophistication while maintaining the bee's essential charm. Both colourways on white backgrounds ensure the bee's distinctive silhouette remains clear, whether displayed as single pollinators adding movement to plain walls or combined with other English Delft designs to create complete garden narratives buzzing with life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePerfect Spaces for English Delft Bee Tiles\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKitchen Gardens Indoors\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTransform kitchens into year-round garden spaces where bee tiles bring pollinator energy to culinary areas.

Body shapes vary—some bees appear plump and fuzzy, others sleek in flight. Wing positions differ from fully spread to folded for landing. Flight angles change—horizontal suggesting purposeful travel, angled implying flower approach. Some bees face left, others right, creating natural variety when multiple tiles installed. Paint intensity fluctuates creating some bold bees, others more delicate.

Bees logically appear near flower tiles, creating pollination stories. Position bees flying between cottage tiles suggesting village gardens. Mix with bird tiles for complete wildlife—swifts catching insects high while bees work flowers below. Single bees add movement to calm scenes; multiple bees create busy energy. The 13 x 13cm size allows detailed scene building.

Random angles create natural exploration feeling. Aligned flight paths suggest purposeful travel to distant flowers. Circular arrangements imply bees circling blooms. Ascending patterns create uplifting movement. The key is avoiding rigid patterns that wouldn't occur naturally while maintaining overall compositional balance. This creates installations that feel alive with pollinator activity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eEasy Maintenance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe glazed surface protects delicate hand-painted bees while allowing gentle cleaning.

Each 13 x 13cm tile is individually painted by our talented in-house artists in Devon, featuring a graceful swallow in flight—a symbol of home, hope, and the English summer. Available in classic Delft Blue or contemporary Charcoal on pristine white backgrounds, these tiles transform walls into galleries of handcrafted art.

While Delftware originated in 17th-century Holland as Europe's answer to Chinese porcelain, our English interpretation brings a distinctly British sensibility through native bird motifs. The swallow—long celebrated in British folklore as a harbinger of summer and symbol of safe homecoming—captures movement and grace in delicate brushstrokes that only hand-painting can achieve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat distinguishes our Delft Swallow tiles is the authentic hand-painted process. Unlike mass-produced transfers or digital prints, each tile receives individual attention from our Devon artists, who apply traditional cobalt blue or sophisticated charcoal pigments with practiced brushstrokes. This means no two tiles are exactly identical—slight variations in wing positions, feather details, and paint intensity create a collection with genuine artistic character. The 13 x 13cm format pays homage to historical Delft proportions while offering practical coverage for modern installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe choice between traditional Delft Blue and contemporary Charcoal allows for different aesthetic directions. Delft Blue maintains the classic Dutch pottery tradition with its distinctive cobalt oxide pigment that has graced European ceramics for four centuries. Charcoal offers a modern interpretation, bringing graphic sophistication while maintaining the hand-painted charm. Both colour ways on white backgrounds ensure the artistic detail remains the focal point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePerfect Spaces for English Delft Swallow Tiles\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTraditional \u0026amp; Country Kitchens\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTransform your kitchen into a storytelling space where English Delft Swallow tiles create charming splashback narratives.

Each 13 x 13cm tile is individually painted by our talented in-house artists in Devon, featuring the distinctive kingfisher in characteristic pose—a flash of turquoise and orange that has captivated British naturalists for generations. Available in classic Delft Blue or contemporary Charcoal on pristine white backgrounds, these tiles bring the magic of riverbank encounters into your home.

The kingfisher—often called Britain's most beautiful bird—has long symbolised patience, prosperity, and the pristine quality of our waterways. In folklore, kingfishers were believed to bring peace and calm, their legendary halcyon days promising tranquil waters. Our artists capture this magnificent bird's essence through delicate brushwork that only hand-painting can achieve, rendering its distinctive silhouette and proud bearing with artistic sensitivity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat distinguishes our Delft Kingfisher tiles is the authentic hand-painted process that brings individual character to each piece. Unlike mass-produced transfers or digital prints, every tile receives personal attention from our Devon artists, who apply traditional cobalt blue or sophisticated charcoal pigments with practiced brushstrokes. The kingfisher's compact form and distinctive profile translate beautifully to the Delft style—simplified yet immediately recognisable, artistic yet naturalistic. No two tiles are identical; subtle variations in feather details, beak angles, and paint intensity create a collection with genuine artistic soul.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 13 x 13cm format honours historical Delft proportions while offering practical versatility for modern installations. Choose between traditional Delft Blue—maintaining four centuries of cobalt oxide tradition—or contemporary Charcoal for graphic sophistication. Both colour ways on white backgrounds ensure the kingfisher's distinctive form remains the focal point, whether used as single accent pieces or combined with other English Delft designs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePerfect Spaces for English Delft Kingfisher Tiles\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBathroom Sanctuaries\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTransform bathrooms into serene riverside retreats where kingfisher tiles evoke waterside tranquillity.

Before installation, arrange tiles appreciating individual variations—some kingfishers may have slightly different head angles or feather details creating natural variety. The bird's compact form means tiles work well individually or in small groups. Avoid cutting hand-painted tiles; plan installations using whole pieces. Consider the kingfisher's directional nature when placing—they can 'look' toward focal points.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWet Area Excellence\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKingfisher tiles naturally suit water-themed spaces.

Each 13 x 13cm tile is individually painted by our talented in-house artists in Devon, featuring the gentle dove in graceful repose—a motif that has graced European ceramics and religious art for millennia. Available in classic Delft Blue or contemporary Charcoal on pristine white backgrounds, these tiles bring serenity and spiritual elegance to your walls. Part of our exclusive English Delft collection, each hand-painted piece contributes to visual narratives where quaint buildings, graceful birds, and elegant florals create stories of home, nature, and tranquillity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Choose Traditional English Delft Dove Tiles?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe English Delft Dove tile carries profound cultural resonance, combining European ceramic artistry with one of humanity's most enduring symbols. The dove—representing peace, love, fidelity, and the Holy Spirit in Christian tradition—has decorated homes from medieval churches to Victorian parlours. In British culture, doves symbolise new beginnings (Noah's dove), faithful love (turtle doves), and peaceful intentions. Our artists capture this gentle bird's essence through delicate brushwork that transforms simple ceramic into meaningful art.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat distinguishes our Delft Dove tiles is the authentic hand-painted process that imbues each piece with individual soul. Unlike mass-produced transfers or digital prints, every tile receives personal attention from our Devon artists, who apply traditional cobalt blue or sophisticated charcoal pigments with thoughtful brushstrokes. The dove's serene form translates beautifully to the Delft style—elegant simplicity that conveys profound meaning. Each dove sits slightly differently, wing details vary subtly, and paint intensity fluctuates naturally, creating a collection where no two tiles are identical twins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 13 x 13cm format maintains historical Delft proportions while offering versatility for contemporary installations. Traditional Delft Blue connects to four centuries of cobalt oxide tradition, evoking Dutch Golden Age ceramics and English delftware. Contemporary Charcoal offers modern sophistication while preserving hand-painted charm. Both colourways on white backgrounds ensure the dove's peaceful presence remains central, whether displayed individually as meditative focal points or combined with other English Delft designs for storytelling installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePerfect Spaces for English Delft Dove Tiles\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBedroom Sanctuaries\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTransform bedrooms into peaceful retreats where dove tiles promote restful tranquillity. Position above headboards as guardian symbols, or create symmetrical arrangements flanking mirrors for balanced harmony.

Each 13 x 13cm tile is individually painted by our talented in-house artists in Devon, featuring the classic windmill silhouette that has defined Dutch landscapes and Delftware for four centuries. Available in classic Delft Blue or contemporary Charcoal on pristine white backgrounds, these tiles bring pastoral romance and historical charm to modern interiors. Part of our exclusive English Delft collection, each hand-painted piece contributes to wall narratives where quaint buildings, graceful birds, and elegant florals create enchanting stories of countryside life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Choose Traditional English Delft Windmill Tiles?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe English Delft Windmill tile embodies the very essence of Delftware tradition, featuring the motif most synonymous with Dutch decorative arts. Windmills—those magnificent engines of prosperity that drained the polders and ground the grain—represent human ingenuity working in harmony with nature. While quintessentially Dutch, windmills also dot the English landscape from the Norfolk Broads to the Kentish countryside, making this motif a bridge between two nations' heritage. Our artists capture these architectural marvels through delicate brushwork that reduces complex engineering to elegant simplicity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat distinguishes our Delft Windmill tiles is the authentic hand-painted process that brings individual character to each piece. Unlike mass-produced transfers or digital prints, every tile receives personal attention from our Devon artists, who render sails, towers, and landscapes with practiced brushstrokes. The windmill's geometric form translates perfectly to the Delft style—architectural precision softened by hand-painted charm. No two tiles are identical; sail positions vary subtly, landscape details differ, and paint intensity fluctuates naturally, creating genuine artisan variation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 13 x 13cm format honours historical Delft proportions established in 17th-century Holland when these tiles first decorated Dutch homes.

Windmill sails may be positioned differently, landscape details vary, and paint intensity fluctuates naturally.

Position some windmills as 'distant' (lighter painted) and others as 'near' (darker painted) if variations allow. Mix with cottage tiles to suggest villages, or with bird tiles for sky animation.

These architectural marvels—with their distinctive domes and viewing towers—represent humanity's greatest aspirations: to navigate seas, predict seasons, and comprehend our cosmic place. In British culture, observatories hold special significance from Greenwich's Prime Meridian to the countryside follies of Georgian estates where astronomy was fashionable pursuit. Our artists capture these temples of science through delicate brushwork that transforms complex architecture into elegant decorative art.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat distinguishes our Delft Observatory tiles is the authentic hand-painted process that brings individual character to each celestial structure. Unlike mass-produced transfers or digital prints, every tile receives personal attention from our Devon artists, who render domes, towers, and architectural details with thoughtful brushstrokes. The observatory's geometric precision translates beautifully to the Delft style—scientific architecture softened by artistic interpretation. No two tiles are identical; dome angles vary subtly, architectural details differ, and paint intensity fluctuates naturally, creating pieces with genuine scholarly charm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 13 x 13cm format maintains historical Delft proportions while offering versatility for contemporary installations.

Dome proportions differ slightly, architectural details vary, and paint intensity fluctuates naturally—like viewing different observatories through atmospheric conditions.

Each 13 x 13cm tile is individually painted by our talented in-house artists in Devon, featuring picturesque mill buildings with their iconic water wheels—those magnificent timber mechanisms that harnessed river power for over a millennium. Available in classic Delft Blue or contemporary Charcoal on pristine white backgrounds, these tiles capture the romance of babbling brooks and turning wheels that once soundtracked rural life. Part of our exclusive English Delft collection, each hand-painted piece weaves into wall stories where quaint buildings, graceful birds, and elegant florals chronicle British countryside heritage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Choose Traditional English Delft Mill Tiles?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe English Delft Mill tile celebrates Britain's extraordinary relationship with water power, from Domesday Book mills to Industrial Revolution factories. These riverside structures—recorded in 5,624 locations in 1086—represent humanity's first widespread renewable energy system. Unlike windmills dependent on weather, watermills offered reliable power through flowing streams, their steady rhythm marking time in village life. The mill wheel, endlessly turning, symbolises continuity, honest work, and harmony with nature. Our artists capture these mechanical marvels through delicate brushwork that transforms engineering into poetry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat distinguishes our Delft Mill tiles is the authentic hand-painted process that brings each riverside structure to life. Unlike mass-produced transfers or digital prints, every tile receives individual attention from our Devon artists, who paint wheels, millstones, and timber frames with careful brushstrokes. The mill's architectural complexity—combining stone buildings with wooden mechanisms—translates beautifully to the Delft style's simplified elegance. No two tiles match exactly; wheel spokes vary, water flow differs, rooflines change subtly, creating a collection where each mill tells its own story.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 13 x 13cm format maintains historical Delft proportions perfected over four centuries. Traditional Delft Blue uses authentic cobalt oxide pigments, connecting your walls to both Dutch ceramic mastery and British blue-and-white pottery traditions. Contemporary Charcoal suits industrial-chic interiors celebrating mill conversion aesthetics. Both colourways on pristine white backgrounds ensure the mill's architectural drama remains central, whether displayed solo as riverside cameos or combined with other English Delft designs creating complete waterside communities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePerfect Spaces for English Delft Mill Tiles\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKitchen Mill Streams\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTransform cooking spaces into riverside kitchens where mill tiles connect food preparation to grain processing heritage.

Mix mills with cottage tiles suggesting miller's homes, or bird tiles indicating riverside wildlife. The water wheel imagery brings movement to static walls while honouring culinary heritage.

Water wheels show different rotation stages—some spokes vertical suggesting rest, others diagonal implying motion. Building details vary: some mills show doors and windows, others emphasise wheel housing. Paint density fluctuates creating atmospheric perspective—darker mills appear nearer, lighter ones distant. These variations create dynamic installations where multiple mills suggest different structures along waterways rather than repetition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCreating Mill Race Narratives\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConsider water flow when placing multiple mills. Traditional mills required specific positioning—upstream for power, downstream for drainage. Reflect this in tile arrangements: mills shouldn't face opposing directions along implied waterways. Add blue accent tiles suggesting water channels, white tiles for mill ponds. Single mills create quiet moments; groups suggest prosperous milling communities. The compact size allows detailed scene building.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSeasonal Scene Building\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMills operated seasonally—spring floods, summer drought, autumn harvest, winter freeze. Create year-round interest by mixing mills with seasonal elements from the English Delft collection. Birds suggest spring, florals imply summer gardens, cottages with smoke indicate winter. This narrative layering transforms simple splashbacks into evolving stories. Our design team assists with seasonal scene planning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eEasy Maintenance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGlazed surfaces protect painted mills while allowing gentle cleaning. Soft cloths with warm water preserve delicate brushwork. Avoid abrasive cleaners near painted details—wheel spokes and architectural elements need gentle care. pH-neutral products maintain both glaze brightness and paint integrity.

Each 15 x 15cm tile is individually painted by our talented in-house artists in Devon, featuring proud lighthouse towers with their distinctive lantern rooms—those architectural heroes that pierce darkness and fog to ensure safe passage. Available in classic Delft Blue or contemporary Charcoal on pristine white backgrounds, these tiles bring coastal drama and nautical heritage to landlocked and seaside homes alike. Part of our exclusive English Delft collection, each hand-painted piece illuminates wall narratives where quaint buildings, graceful birds, and elegant florals create stories of maritime courage and coastal life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Choose Traditional English Delft Lighthouse Tiles?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe English Delft Lighthouse tile honours Britain's remarkable lighthouse heritage, from medieval beacon towers to Victorian engineering triumphs. With over 200 lighthouses gracing our coastline—from Eddystone's defiant rocks to Beachy Head's chalk cliff dignity—these structures represent humanity's promise to protect seafarers. Each lighthouse tells tales of isolation and dedication, of keepers climbing spiral stairs through storms, of lights that meant the difference between shipwreck and salvation. Our artists capture these coastal sentinels through delicate brushwork that transforms life-saving architecture into decorative poetry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat distinguishes our Delft Lighthouse tiles is the authentic hand-painted process that brings individual character to each beacon. Unlike mass-produced transfers or digital prints, every tile receives personal attention from our Devon artists, who render towers, lantern galleries, and rocky foundations with practiced brushstrokes. The lighthouse's vertical drama—striped bands, tapered towers, crowned lanterns—translates magnificently to the Delft style's elegant simplification. No two tiles are identical; lighthouse proportions vary, stripe patterns differ, and paint intensity fluctuates naturally, creating a collection where each beacon stands unique guard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 15 x 15cm format—larger than our standard English Delft tiles—gives lighthouses the presence they deserve. This generous canvas allows for architectural detail while maintaining comfortable installation proportions. Traditional Delft Blue evokes maritime charts and naval uniforms, connecting to centuries of nautical decoration. Contemporary Charcoal offers sophisticated modernity perfect for coastal chic interiors. Both colourways on white backgrounds ensure the lighthouse's commanding silhouette remains prominent, whether displayed as solitary beacons or combined with other English Delft designs to create complete coastal narratives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePerfect Spaces for English Delft Lighthouse Tiles\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBathroom Beacon Rooms\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTransform bathrooms into coastal sanctuaries where lighthouse tiles guide morning routines like maritime navigation.

The 15 x 15cm format provides generous canvas for architectural detail—lantern galleries, stripe patterns, rocky bases. Some lighthouses stand straight, others lean slightly as if weathering storms. Paint intensity varies creating atmospheric effects—darker lighthouses appear through clear weather, lighter ones suggest fog. These variations create dynamic coastal scenes when multiple tiles are installed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVertical Architecture Planning\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLighthouses are inherently vertical structures requiring considered placement. Position tiles respecting their upward thrust—avoid cutting through lighthouse towers if possible. The larger 15 x 15cm format means fewer tiles needed for impact. Single lighthouses work as powerful focal points; pairs suggest harbour entrances; groups create coastal defence narratives. Consider sight lines—lighthouses should be visible from room entrances like actual beacons.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCreating Coastal Narratives\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCombine lighthouses with other English Delft maritime designs for complete seaside stories. Add cottage tiles for keeper's quarters, windmills for clifftop variety, birds for coastal wildlife. Use blue tiles to suggest sea, white for sky or fog. Create depth with lighthouse placement—some prominent (danger points), others distant (safe passage markers). Our design team assists with coastal scene planning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eEasy Maintenance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe glazed surface protects hand-painted lighthouses while allowing simple cleaning. Use soft cloths avoiding harsh pressure on painted stripes and architectural details. pH-neutral cleaners preserve both glaze and delicate brushwork.

Each 13 x 13cm tile is individually painted by our talented in-house artists in Devon, featuring quintessential cottage facades with their distinctive architectural details—mullioned windows, weathered doors, and climbing roses that epitomise English countryside romance. Available in classic Delft Blue or contemporary Charcoal on pristine white backgrounds, these tiles bring village charm and architectural heritage to both rural and urban homes. Part of our exclusive English Delft collection, each hand-painted piece anchors wall narratives where quaint buildings, graceful birds, and elegant florals create stories of community, home, and the enduring appeal of cottage life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Choose Traditional English Delft Cottage Tiles?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe English Delft Cottage tile captures the essence of Britain's beloved vernacular architecture, from Cotswold honey stone to Suffolk pink wash, Devon cob to Lake District slate. These humble dwellings—with their human scale and organic materials—represent centuries of building wisdom adapted to local landscape and climate. Each cottage tells stories: Tudor beams speaking of ancient forests, Georgian symmetry reflecting rural prosperity, Victorian embellishments celebrating cottage orné romanticism. Our artists distil these architectural narratives through delicate brushwork that transforms complex structures into charming ceramic vignettes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat distinguishes our Delft Cottage tiles is the authentic hand-painted process that brings individual personality to each dwelling. Unlike mass-produced transfers or digital prints, every tile receives personal attention from our Devon artists, who render rooflines, windows, and doorways with thoughtful brushstrokes. The cottage's architectural variety—from single-storey thatched to two-storey slate-roofed—translates beautifully to the Delft style's simplified elegance. No two tiles are identical; roof angles vary, window arrangements differ, and paint intensity fluctuates naturally, creating a collection where each cottage has its own character and story.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 13 x 13cm format maintains historical Delft proportions, perfect for creating village scenes or standalone architectural moments. Traditional Delft Blue connects to centuries of European ceramic tradition while evoking British transferware depicting rural idylls. Contemporary Charcoal offers sophisticated modernity ideal for urban homes seeking countryside connection. Both colourways on white backgrounds ensure the cottage's architectural charm remains central, whether displayed as single dwellings or combined with other English Delft designs to create complete village narratives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePerfect Spaces for English Delft Cottage Tiles\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKitchen Heart of the Home\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTransform kitchens into countryside havens where cottage tiles create the warmth of village life.

Rooflines differ—some steep for rain runoff, others shallow suggesting different regions. Window arrangements vary—some symmetric Georgian, others rambling Medieval. Door positions change, chimneys lean different ways. Paint intensity varies suggesting weather conditions—darker cottages appear in sunshine, lighter ones in mist. These variations create living villages rather than repetitive housing estates when installed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCreating Village Narratives\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlan cottage placement to tell architectural stories. Mix cottage styles suggesting historical development—ancient core with later additions. Consider social geography: grander cottages on 'high street', workers' cottages in 'lanes'. Face cottages toward implied streets or greens. Add other English Delft elements: mills for economy, churches for community, birds for life. Single cottages work as rural idylls; groups create village society.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eArchitectural Hierarchy\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen mixing cottage sizes and styles, create believable architectural relationships. Grand cottages shouldn't overwhelm humble neighbours; workers' cottages cluster near mills; isolated cottages need rural context (surrounding plain tiles suggesting fields). The 13 x 13cm format allows detailed village planning.

Each 13 x 13cm tile is individually painted by our talented in-house artists in Devon, featuring quintessential church facades with their distinctive architectural elements—pointed spires, arched doorways, and Gothic windows that have called communities to worship since Saxon times. Available in classic Delft Blue or contemporary Charcoal on pristine white backgrounds, these tiles bring architectural gravitas and spiritual serenity to modern interiors. Part of our exclusive English Delft collection, each hand-painted piece creates focal points in wall narratives where quaint buildings, graceful birds, and elegant florals tell stories of village life, community heritage, and enduring faith.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Choose Traditional English Delft Church Tiles?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe English Delft Church tile captures the architectural soul of Britain's 16,000 parish churches, from humble Norman chapels to soaring Gothic spires. These sacred buildings—often the oldest structures in their communities—represent continuity through centuries of change. Each church tells layered stories: Saxon foundations, Norman doorways, Gothic windows, Victorian restorations. Beyond worship, churches marked life's passages, sheltered communities, and served as navigation landmarks across the countryside. Our artists distil these monumental structures through delicate brushwork that transforms complex ecclesiastical architecture into elegant ceramic devotions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat distinguishes our Delft Church tiles is the authentic hand-painted process that brings individual character to each sacred building. Unlike mass-produced transfers or digital prints, every tile receives personal attention from our Devon artists, who render spires, towers, and architectural details with reverent brushstrokes. The church's vertical aspiration—reaching skyward with spires and bell towers—translates magnificently to the Delft style's simplified grace. No two tiles are identical; spire heights vary, window arrangements differ, and paint intensity fluctuates naturally, creating a collection where each church has distinct architectural personality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 13 x 13cm format maintains historical Delft proportions while providing sufficient canvas for architectural detail. Traditional Delft Blue evokes both Dutch religious pottery and British commemorative ceramics marking church occasions. Contemporary Charcoal offers sophisticated modernity perfect for secular appreciation of ecclesiastical architecture. Both colourways on white backgrounds ensure the church's commanding silhouette remains prominent, whether displayed as solitary monuments or combined with other English Delft designs to create complete village centres.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePerfect Spaces for English Delft Church Tiles\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHallway Sanctuary Entrances\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCreate contemplative passages where church tiles transform hallways into architectural pilgrimages.

Position churches centrally or elevated, reflecting their historical prominence. Single churches suggest rural parishes; multiple churches indicate market towns. Face churches toward implied village squares with cottages arranged respectfully around. Add paths (grout lines) leading to church doors. The architectural weight of churches demands considered positioning—they should command but not overwhelm village scenes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpiritual \u0026amp; Secular Balance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen mixing churches with other English Delft designs, create believable relationships.

Birds flying near spires add life. Observatories suggest Victorian scientific advancement alongside ancient faith.

Available in classic Delft Blue or contemporary Charcoal on pristine white backgrounds, these tiles bring architectural reverence and peaceful contemplation to modern interiors.

These sacred buildings—standing at the heart of every settlement from Highland glens to Cotswold valleys—represent not just faith but community, continuity, and architectural achievement. Whether depicting simple country chapels or elaborate Gothic spires, each tile celebrates the spiritual landmarks that have witnessed centuries of human joy, sorrow, and celebration. Our artists distil these architectural treasures through delicate brushwork that transforms stone and timber into ceramic poetry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat distinguishes our Delft Chapel tiles is the authentic hand-painted process that brings reverent character to each sacred structure. Unlike mass-produced transfers or digital prints, every tile receives individual attention from our Devon artists, who render spires, windows, and doorways with thoughtful brushstrokes. The chapel's architectural variety—from simple Methodist chapels to elaborate Anglican churches—translates beautifully to the Delft style's elegant simplification. No two tiles are identical; spire heights vary, window arrangements differ, and paint intensity fluctuates naturally, creating a collection where each chapel has its own spiritual presence and architectural personality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 13 x 13cm format maintains historical Delft proportions perfect for creating village scenes or standalone devotional moments.

These variations create authentic variety when multiple tiles are installed, suggesting different chapels across British landscapes rather than repetition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCreating Village Narratives with Chapels\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen installing chapel tiles as part of village scenes, consider traditional placement. Chapels typically occupy prominent positions—hilltops, village centres, or crossroads. Face chapels toward implied congregation approach routes. Mix with cottage tiles for parishioners' homes, mills for working life, birds for nature's choir. Single chapels create quiet contemplation; multiple tiles suggest important religious centres. The 13 x 13cm size allows detailed scene building. Our design team assists with meaningful arrangements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRespectful Display Considerations\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile chapel tiles are decorative rather than devotional, consider respectful placement. Avoid positions that might appear irreverent. In actively religious homes, chapel tiles can enhance prayer spaces. In secular settings, appreciate as architectural art. The hand-painted quality adds human touch to spiritual representation. Consider sight lines—chapels visible from seating areas provide contemplative focal points. Mixed faith households find chapel tiles offer spiritual reference without denominational specificity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eEasy Maintenance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe glazed surface protects delicate hand-painted chapels while allowing gentle cleaning. Use soft cloths preserving painted architectural details—tiny windows, doorways, and spire crosses need careful treatment. pH-neutral cleaners maintain both glaze and artwork. Regular dusting keeps white backgrounds pristine, ensuring chapels remain prominent. No additional sealing required. The sealed surface prevents moisture damage important for preserving religious architectural representation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGrout Selection\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePure White\u003c\/strong\u003e: Traditional choice, chapels appear to float spiritually\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoft Grey\u003c\/strong\u003e: Subtle definition, contemporary reverence\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCream\u003c\/strong\u003e: Warm alternative, country chapel feeling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePale Blue\u003c\/strong\u003e: Sky suggestion, heavenly connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBeige\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stone-like effect, architectural grounding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eComplete the Look\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eEnglish Delft Collection:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVillage Buildings\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cottages, mills, and windmills for complete communities\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBird Tiles\u003c\/strong\u003e: Doves, swallows, kingfishers for natural life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eObservatory Tiles\u003c\/strong\u003e: Balancing spiritual with scientific\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFloral Designs\u003c\/strong\u003e: Creating chapel gardens and churchyards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eComplete Collection\u003c\/strong\u003e: See all \u003ca title=\"English Delft Tiles\" href=\"\/collections\/english-delft-tiles\" aria-label=\"English Delft Tiles\"\u003eEnglish Delft designs\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eComplementary Blues:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca title=\"Blue Mosaic Tiles\" href=\"\/collections\/blue-mosaic-tiles\" aria-label=\"Blue Mosaic Tiles\"\u003eBlue mosaic tiles\u003c\/a\u003e for decorative accents\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca title=\"Blue Tiles\" href=\"\/collections\/blue-tiles\" aria-label=\"Blue Tiles\"\u003ePlain blue tiles\u003c\/a\u003e for colour coordination\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca title=\"Patterned Floor Tiles\" href=\"\/collections\/patterned-floor-tiles\" aria-label=\"Patterned Floor Tiles\"\u003eBlue patterned tiles\u003c\/a\u003e for additional interest\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eArchitectural Companions:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca title=\"Victorian Floor Tiles\" href=\"\/collections\/victorian-floor-tiles\" aria-label=\"Victorian Floor Tiles\"\u003eVictorian floor tiles\u003c\/a\u003e for period authenticity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca title=\"Patterned Floor Tiles\" href=\"\/collections\/patterned-floor-tiles\" aria-label=\"Patterned Floor Tiles\"\u003eGeometric tiles\u003c\/a\u003e for ecclesiastical patterns\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca title=\"Victorian Floor Tile Borders\" href=\"\/collections\/victorian-floor-tile-borders\" aria-label=\"Victorian Floor Tile Borders\"\u003eBorder tiles\u003c\/a\u003e for framing chapel scenes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eNatural Materials:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca title=\"Stone Effect Tiles\" href=\"\/collections\/stone-effect-tiles\" aria-label=\"Stone Effect Tiles\"\u003eStone effect tiles\u003c\/a\u003e for chapel construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca title=\"Terracotta Tiles\" href=\"\/collections\/terracotta-tiles\" aria-label=\"Terracotta Tiles\"\u003eTerracotta tiles\u003c\/a\u003e for warm earthiness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca title=\"Slate Tile\" href=\"\/collections\/slate-tiles\" aria-label=\"Slate Tile\"\u003eSlate tiles\u003c\/a\u003e for roofing references\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eInstallation Essentials:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhite tile adhesive for clarity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoft grout float for delicate application\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003epH-neutral cleaners\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2-3mm tile spacers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesign consultation for village scenes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProfessional installation service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Buy From Hyperion Tiles?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e✓ \u003cstrong\u003eHand-painted in Devon\u003c\/strong\u003e by skilled artists\u003cbr\u003e✓ \u003cstrong\u003eSpiritual architecture\u003c\/strong\u003e captured in ceramic\u003cbr\u003e✓ \u003cstrong\u003eEach chapel unique\u003c\/strong\u003e -

Each 13 x 13cm tile features a warm, creamy white glaze that softens architectural schemes while maintaining the clean simplicity essential for showcasing decorative elements. Specifically designed to complement our English Delft collection and other traditional decorative tiles, this versatile ceramic tile brings gentle warmth that pure white cannot achieve, creating spaces that feel welcoming rather than clinical. The result is a foundational tile that elevates decorative installations through thoughtful restraint, providing breathing space that allows patterned tiles to shine while contributing its own subtle character to traditional and contemporary schemes alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Choose English White Tiles?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe English White tile represents the culmination of centuries of ceramic wisdom about the importance of 'field' tiles in decorative installations. Not quite pure white, not quite cream, this carefully balanced off-white tone was traditionally known as 'biscuit white' or 'linen white'—colours that complement rather than compete with decorative elements. This subtle warmth prevents the cold, stark appearance that brilliant white can create, especially important in British homes where natural light is often soft and Northern. The colour works harmoniously with the ivory backgrounds of traditional Delft tiles, creating seamless visual flow rather than jarring contrast.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat distinguishes our English White is its specific formulation to partner with traditional decorative tiles, particularly our English Delft collection. The 13 x 13cm format matches exactly, ensuring perfect alignment in mixed installations. The glaze depth and finish coordinate with hand-painted tiles, preventing the flat, lifeless appearance of basic white tiles when placed adjacent to artisan pieces. The warm undertone picks up the slight aging of traditional Delft whites, creating cohesion across mixed installations. This isn't just empty space between decorative tiles—it's an active participant in the overall design composition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe versatility of English White extends beyond Delft companionship. These tiles work beautifully as standalone fields for minimalist traditionalists, as backgrounds for other decorative elements, or as neutral zones in complex pattern schemes. The warm white suits period properties where brilliant white would appear anachronistic, yet remains fresh enough for contemporary applications. Whether creating frames around decorative panels, providing calm areas in busy patterns, or covering entire walls with warm simplicity, English White tiles offer the perfect traditional neutral.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePerfect Applications for English White Tiles\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDelft Installation Frameworks\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCreate properly balanced decorative installations where English White tiles provide essential breathing space around hand-painted Delft pieces. Use as field tiles surrounding individual decorative tiles, allowing special pieces to stand out without overwhelming walls. The warm white creates gentle frames that don't compete with delicate blue painting. In larger Delft installations, white tiles provide visual rest between pattern groups, preventing sensory overload. The matching 13 x 13cm format ensures seamless integration with Delft corners, borders, and feature tiles. Essential for traditional installations following historical precedent.

Each 13 x 13cm tile features the same high-quality white glaze and precise dimensions as our decorated Delft tiles, allowing seamless integration when creating traditional patterns, borders, or spacing decorative pieces within larger installations.

Historically, even the grandest Delft schemes combined decorated tiles with plain white companions, both for economy and aesthetic balance. Too many decorated tiles can overwhelm; the white base tiles provide visual breathing space that makes decorative pieces more impactful. This traditional approach creates installations where hand-painted tiles become precious jewels set within pristine white fields.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat distinguishes our Delft Base tiles is their precise matching to our decorated range. The white glaze is calibrated to the exact tone used as backgrounds on painted tiles—neither too bright nor too cream, maintaining perfect harmony. The 13 x 13cm dimension matches exactly, ensuring seamless installation with no awkward gaps or misalignments. The thickness and edge profile replicate our hand-painted tiles, creating uniform surfaces whether combining or using alone. This attention to compatibility details ensures professional results whether creating elaborate patterns or simple accent schemes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe versatility of white base tiles extends beyond mere spacing. They can create geometric patterns, form borders and frames, establish grid patterns where decorated tiles appear at intersections, or provide clean backgrounds that allow decorative pieces to tell their stories without competition. The crisp white surface also stands beautifully alone—many use base tiles exclusively in certain areas, reserving decorated pieces for focal points. This flexibility makes them essential for both traditional recreations and contemporary interpretations of Delft style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePerfect Applications for Delft Base Tiles\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTraditional Kitchen Schemes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCreate authentic Delft kitchens where base tiles provide the foundation for decorated accent pieces, following centuries-old installation traditions. Use white base tiles across larger splashback areas with decorated tiles at regular intervals—perhaps one decorated tile per nine plain creates classic Dutch pattern. Position decorative pieces at working heights where they can be appreciated, using base tiles to complete the scheme. The consistent white provides practical, easy-clean surfaces while maintaining the Delft aesthetic throughout.

Avoid abrasive cleaners that might dull the surface. Re-grouting periodically keeps installations looking fresh. The durability means base tiles often outlast decorated pieces in high-use areas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eReplacement \u0026amp; Matching\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKeep spare base tiles for future repairs—exact colour matching can be difficult years later. When replacing damaged tiles in mixed installations, base tiles are easier to source than specific decorated patterns. The standard white makes finding compatible replacements simpler. Store spares in dry conditions to prevent discolouration. Document installation patterns for accurate recreation if repairs needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eComplete the Look\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eEnglish Delft Collection:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca title=\"English Delft Tiles\" href=\"\/collections\/english-delft-tiles\" aria-label=\"English Delft Tiles\"\u003eDecorative Delft tiles\u003c\/a\u003e - all patterns\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCorner tiles for traditional patterns\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBorder tiles for edging\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFireplace tile sets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCoordinating Whites:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca title=\"White Tiles\" href=\"\/collections\/white-tiles\" aria-label=\"White Tiles\"\u003eWhite tiles\u003c\/a\u003e in various sizes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca title=\"Plain Tiles\" href=\"\/collections\/plain-tiles\" aria-label=\"Plain Tiles\"\u003ePlain tiles\u003c\/a\u003e for different areas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca title=\"Metro Tiles\" href=\"\/collections\/metro-tiles-collection\" aria-label=\"Metro Tiles\"\u003eMetro tiles\u003c\/a\u003e for contemporary mix\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca title=\"Ceramic Tiles\" href=\"\/\" aria-label=\"Ceramic Tiles\"\u003eCeramic tiles\u003c\/a\u003e for coordination\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTraditional Elements:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca title=\"Blue Tiles\" href=\"\/collections\/blue-tiles\" aria-label=\"Blue Tiles\"\u003eBlue tiles\u003c\/a\u003e for accents\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca title=\"Victorian Floor Tiles\" href=\"\/collections\/victorian-floor-tiles\" aria-label=\"Victorian Floor Tiles\"\u003eVictorian tiles\u003c\/a\u003e for period schemes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca title=\"Border Tiles\" href=\"\/collections\/victorian-floor-tile-borders\" aria-label=\"Border Tiles\"\u003eBorder tiles\u003c\/a\u003e for framing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca title=\"Feature Wall Tiles\" href=\"\/collections\/feature-wall-tiles\" aria-label=\"Feature Wall Tiles\"\u003eFeature tiles\u003c\/a\u003e for focal points\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eInstallation Essentials:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhite tile adhesive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTraditional grout colours\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTile spacers 2-3mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePattern planning guides\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProfessional installation service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpare tile storage solutions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Buy From Hyperion Tiles?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e✓ \u003cstrong\u003eDelft expertise\u003c\/strong\u003e - Traditional tile specialists\u003cbr\u003e✓ \u003cstrong\u003ePerfect matching\u003c\/strong\u003e - Calibrated to decorated range\u003cbr\u003e✓ \u003cstrong\u003eConsistent quality\u003c\/strong\u003e - Uniform white glaze\u003cbr\u003e✓ \u003cstrong\u003eSample service\u003c\/strong\u003e - Plan your pattern\u003cbr\u003e✓ \u003cstrong\u003eFree UK delivery\u003c\/strong\u003e on orders over £1,000\u003cbr\u003e✓ \u003cstrong\u003ePattern guidance\u003c\/strong\u003e - Traditional arrangement advice\u003cbr\u003e✓ \u003cstrong\u003eHundreds of five-star Trustpilot reviews \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e✓ \u003cstrong\u003eStock availability\u003c\/strong\u003e - No waiting times\u003cbr\u003e✓ \u003cstrong\u003eTrade discounts\u003c\/strong\u003e - For larger projects\u003cbr\u003e✓ \u003cstrong\u003eDesign support\u003c\/strong\u003e - Mixed installation planning\u003cbr\u003e✓ \u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca title=\"Ascot Showroom\" href=\"\/pages\/showroom-ascot\" aria-label=\"Ascot Showroom\"\u003eAscot showroom\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e - See displays\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eReady to create authentic Delft installations?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOrder your samples today to plan perfect combinations of base and decorated tiles.
