Our latest project involved making the tiles for a large panel for the Holy Trinity Catholic Church in Chipping Norton. Specially designed to sit on the wall directly behind the baptismal font, the panel frames the space where baptisms take place.

The main subject of the panel was “peace” and “water”. At the top of the panel sits the main focal point – a dove of peace which we designed and made especially for the project. The carving, moulding, pressing and firing of the plaque took two weeks of painstaking work – but the result was certainly worth the time and effort!

Keeping to the theme of water, we chose the Maugersbury Lattice tile from our Impressions range as a foundation for the panel. The “Double Fish” tile from the same range was perfect for the decorative tiles within the “sea” of wave tiles. At the bottom of the panel we placed a series of our “Grasslands” impressions animal tiles – which the children of the parish especially like.

A lot of thought has to go into planning and making specialist tile shapes and sizes. Special moulds may
need to be made as well as the formulation of specific glazes for the project.
Our tiles can be manufactured in a variety of shapes to fit what you may already
have and most colours can be copied to complement tiles that you need to match.

Do call us if you’d like to discuss your project in detail, and we are always happy to give advice as
to how to go about a work of this size.
