What is it: Mosaics are patterned areas created through assembling small pieces of coloured glass, stone or ceramic called tesserae. This is an ancient technique that is labour intensive.

Characteristics: Mosaics can be produced to any design or pattern and in virtually any colour. They are expensive and labour intensive to produce but result in totally bespoke and unique finishes.

Suitability: Depending on the material of the tesserae they can be used for external or internal use for flooring or as decorative details. Also suitable for swimming pools and spas.
