Art made by the people for the people, as a joy to the maker and the user... ~William Morris
With the arrogance of youth, I determined to do no less than to transform the world with Beauty. If I have succeeded in some small way, if only in one small corner of the world, amongst the men and women I love, then I shall count myself blessed, and blessed, and blessed, and the work goes on. ~William Morris
Added ostrich and two ravens to De Morgan Fantastic Birds and Beasts. Also made a corresponding backsplash, which I will post soon.
Made a new two-row border set for Iznik Empress Border. This is an excellent height for undercabinet areas.
De Morgan Four-Tile Replacement Panel
Added Golden Parrot on glossy black to De Morgan Parrot Backsplash
Current time to ship is 2-4 weeks for most orders. It's tile season so it's prudent to allow some runway time. And shipping times are all over the map, right now. Larger orders may take longer.
New customer installation photos added to Kitchen Backsplashes
Art Nouveau: Tiffany Grape Vine fireplace tiles.
Classic Blue Onion is live. Finally.
Created a Mock Turtle for the Lewis Carroll Fireplace Tiles. There is no original De Morgan mock turtle but one was sorely needed so I've created one from the body parts of other De Morgan creatures. A Mock Turtle Frankenstein, as it were.
Newly launched: Large murals. These will be labeled in the sitemap listing.
I am continuing to replace, or add as an option, some the intricate pattern tiles, that are too dense on a single tile, with two-tile sets. I am really happy with this. It makes them easier to see and has been so well-received that I'm going to continue this trend.
I modified the Catalog in an attempt to make the website easier to navigate. You can drill down from the Catalog, or if you know the tile you are looking for by name, it will be listed on the Site Map.

Currently working on: Larger backsplashes along the lines of the Strawberry Thief Backsplash, Golden Lily and May Morris Acanthus backsplash and border tiles.
He has tinged my whole inner being with the beauty of his own, and I know not a single gift for which I owe such gratitude to heaven as his friendship.
~Edward Burne-Jones on his friendship with William Morris, in Georgiana Burne-Jones, Memorials of Edward Burne-Jones

But really, it's getting away from me....
I've started work on nests, kitchen herbs, and possibly even more fish. Kitchen herbs are probably more important but I am enjoying the nests. Meanwhile, do see the Ladies' Flower Garden of Ornamental Annuals
If these seem like a good idea, encourage me.

I say to you that earth and heaven are not two but one; and this one is that which ye know, and are each one of you a part of.... unless ye slay it. ~William Morris, A Dream of John Ball
