Custom Delft tile design
Looking for something truly personal? We create a custom hand-painted design that reflect your story, style, or business. Whether it’s a portrait of your dog, a favourite holiday memory, a vintage motorbike, or your childhood home, we can turn it into a custom tile with timeless character.
You can also start from a piece in our antique collection, a sketch, a logo, or just a written idea. It’s a great fit for homes, restaurants, shops, bakeries, or hotels, anywhere you’d like to add something unique and meaningful.
Tailored to your project
Each project is thoughtfully tailored to your vision. You can choose from our nine white or three ivory base shades, along with optional pinholes and either a crackled or smooth finish. We can also paint your design in Delft blue, manganese, or full colour. Finally, we’ll plan the tile layout to ensure it fits your space perfectly, whether it’s a single tile or a full mural.

Product disclaimer
We use traditional techniques to make our Delft tiles, and up to five artists may contribute to the painting process. Because of this, slight variations in size, color, and detail are to be expected, and celebrated. Although we don’t offer machine-like perfection, we do uphold a high standard of craftsmanship. These tiles are built to last and will continue to age gracefully for decades, or even centuries, to come.

Frequently asked questions

- How can the tiles be cleaned?Clean tile surfaces with a non-abrasive, mild and PH neutral cleaner. Neutral cleaners are devoid of acids, caustics, harsh fillers, or abrasives that could scratch the surface of the tile. Do not use abrasive cleaning pads, steel wool, metal brushes or scouring pads as these may scratch the surface of the glaze. Crackled tiles that will face regular wet use should be sealed after installation and periodically as needed.
