TAKE A CLOSER LOOK AT THESE BEAUTIFAL SEMI TRANSPARENT GLASS MOSAICS WITH THEIR UNIQUE QUALITIES OF SURFACE "FLECKING" THAT ADD A TOUCH OF OPULENCE TO A RANGE OF NATURAL COLOURS.

Metal mosaics reflect lifestyle as much as colour and should be used with confidence. The polished stainless steel reflects light and colour and looks good alongside vivid hues and stunning against plain white. By contrast the brushed satin effects soften reflections and are perfectly at home with natural, treated wood or highly glazed ceramic surfaces. In a world of decorative minimalism, where less is more, metal mosaics are - more or less - indespensable in the creation of understated wow!

Make a style statement with a uniform linear pattern. The structured order of brickwork adds another dimension to any tiled area, offering distinguished and contemporary designs. 6 clear brickbond colourways available.

In ancient Mesopotamia craftsmen cut stone to create the tiny pieces of tesserae that made up the earliest mosaics. Those used on walls were shaped and raised fractionally, to catch the ever changing quality of light and add beauty and interest to a surface that might otherwise be plain - or sometimes irregular.

Dark or pale, with smooth or rounded edges, in hard or soft colours - the options are plentiful. There will be a stone mosaic to suit every part of your home.

Hand-set medallions are designed to complement any decor and to become the centrepiece of any floor, in any room of the house (they are especially stunning set in a hallway and viewed from a landing). Traditionally, the star in a square symbolises Hope; the compass rose within a square, the quest for earthly and heavenly perfection. And if we might bring you back to earth for a moment with thoughts of food, Medallions also make wonderful centres for outdoor dining tables.

Times change - but not fashion it seems - these designs have been known throughout antiquity. The classic mosaic borders we offer today are made from pieces of tumbled stone that are applied to a mesh by hand, making them easy to lay as well as to transport.

Like a precious 'find' on a sea shore, this tumbled glass mosaic has qualities of softness and sheen that appeal to both eye and touch. The soft edges and aqueous tones absorb rather than reflect light and add great charm to settings, which although simple in overall effect, are full of interest and perfect for contemporary interiors. 9 colourways available.

Offsetting the mosaics scatters the sharp colours in a score of different directions, creating an aura of luxury. Available in 12 colourways.

These iridescent glass mosaics have led former lives but they have never seen better days than the here and now of their present incarnation. Environmentally friendly, these slightly softer shades stem from the subtly different texture of the glass and can be used to dramatic effect in imaginative décor. 12 colourways available.

Look no further for extraordinary value and quality in classic glass mosaics. The excellence in this material, and its consistently high quality throughout firing, rolling, cutting, selection and assembly make it a natural first choice with professionals. The wide range of mixed colours - and their contrasts within the 'mixed' range - guarantee wide appeal with homemakers too. Available in 18 colourways.

Create a point of interest using different shaped tiles arranged in an apparently random order. The clear finish juxtaposed with the unusual combinations of shapes gives an individual look. 6 colourways available.

For a softer, more muted look, go for a frosted finish. The added texture in subtle tones will add warmth while retaining a contemporary style.

Combining clear and frosted tiles in a mixed format adds depth to a design. The cool icy tones create an ambience of tranquillity, far away from the toil of everyday life.

With stunning simplicity these translucent mosaics range from the ethereal to the earthy - like small chunks of semi-precious stone. The delicately beautiful mosaics are paper-faced due to the translucent nature of the tiles (standard mesh would show through). Adhere in the usual way, once set, wet the paper and peel off. The randomly patterned tiles in a matt or gloss finish will create the most spectacular of interiors. 11 colourways available.

These larger iridescent glass mosaics are exquisite, like mother-of-pearl; creating the most striking interior designs. Like fragments of seashell, these dazzling mosaics come in a natural, pearl or silk finish, all gloriously random in texture and colour, giving a simply stunning, luxurious finish to any room. 12 colourways available.

A new terracotta tile that looks a couple of hundred years old. Antique Paviors are heavily textured and distinctly handmade in tones of beige to orange.

Another new tile with an antique appearance. Oscuro has a distressed grainy texture in consistent burnt orange with almost no colour variation between tiles. Shown here with Midnight Slate insets.

Unsurpassed for both their beautiful patina and their sense of history, these tiles have been reclaimed from properties in Southern Europe. Colours are variable in a pleasing spectrum of warm tones.

Our handmade terracotta originates from where the ancient craft of producing consistently fine quality roof and floor tiles has been perfected over many centuries. It begins when the 'right' clays are taken from the earth and physical impurities removed. The resulting balls of clay are shaped and cast individually into frames where they are left to dry in the sun before firing. Look at the bottom of a tile and you will see the marks of the sand bed.

A distinctive terracotta tile uniquely coloured with a striking flame mark. The flamed effect makes the assembled floor surface into a stunning mosaic full of natural character.

The lasting impression limestone will create depends on where and how you use it. First think of the place, then choose either a fine or rustic finish to the stone. Next, how the overall effect might be contrasted or supplemented with differently coloured stone, inset patterns or borders. The extraordinary range of options offered by limestone has ensured its popularity in virtually every area of domestic life for thousands of years - witness the entrances, atriums and dining rooms at Pompeii and Herculaneum.
