Big Ben framed ceramic tile has been designed from original art by North East artist Emily Ward. All ceramic tiles are printed and hand pressed in Emily's art studio, where she hand finishes every tile.
The famous London landmark of the Houses of Parliament and Big Ben glimmer with golden streaks of sunlight on Emily’s art ceramic tile. 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.
