How this one is built
Art mosaics are not difficult, but they take hours of careful tile placing and a single misplaced tile is easy to spot from across a room. We build the panels, join them and press each row with a flat tool so the surface is even. It hangs from the set's own bracket, and the Art mosaic frame in Large gives it a proper edge and keeps the dust off. Spot-gluing fixes the panel joins so it survives being taken down and rehung. Also sold framed and lit as an edition.

Care notes
- Dust with a soft, dry make-up brush, or compressed air held well back.
- Keep it out of direct sun: white and light grey bricks yellow over the years.
- Lift it by the base or the heaviest part, never by a tower, wing or stem.
