Big Ben coaster by artist Emily Ward has been hand pressed locally onto a FSC rated hardbacked coaster. The coaster has been produced from original art by Emily.
The famous London landmark of the Houses of Parliament and Big Ben glimmer with golden streaks of sunlight on Emily’s art coaster. The sunrise provides a vibrant burst of colour, oranges, reds and yellows fill the London skyline. The warming colours highlight the Gothic architecture.
The River Thames is filled with colourful, splattered dots in purple, yellow, blue and pink which give the impression of wildflowers floating across the water.
