An Arts and Crafts Hearth

(When we switched to our current website, some lovely installation pictures never made it over from the old version of EmuTile.com. I am going to attempt to re- post all of those "lost" installations, starting with this one. Please note, this particular installation features "Northern Lights" glaze which has since been discontinued.)

E.A.  sent me these gorgeous pictures of her hearth.  She ordered two of my 3"x3" Fleur tiles in Northern Lights glaze, and installed them herself.  She found the field tiles on Craigslist and got them for a song; they were left over from someone else's installation. What a lucky find! They really complete the arts and crafts look.

Great combination of green glazes.

Above is a picture of the basic layout before it was installed. (Love that weathered wood background!)

Below is a close up of after it was installed:

Next we have a picture of the fireplace before the tiles were installed:

Thank you, E.A., for sending pictures!
