Overview
P-4 series – Classic flowers
These Delft wall tiles are based on original 17th century Delft tiles with richly decorated flowers. They are decorated with ox-head (PCM-20) corner motifs and painted in a classic shade of blue. The photos show the P-4 series painted on the all-in mix, with the crackled finish and with pinholes. This is our base configuration, but of course it can be completely fine-tuned to your preferences.

16 unique scenes
This series is a direct replica of an original reclaimed Delft tiles set dating back to around 1660, a period when floral themes flourished in Dutch ceramic art. During the Dutch Golden Age, the rise of botanical gardens and the widespread popularity of plant studies led tilemakers to incorporate detailed flower designs into their work. This series brings that tradition back to life with 16 hand-painted floral scenes, featuring iconic blooms such as the tulip, Snake’s Head (Fritillaria), Crown Imperial, and others. Each design has been thoughtfully recreated by hand to reflect the elegance and craftsmanship of the originals. The result is a lively and varied tile composition that reveals new details with every look. And since every tile is painted individually, your wall will carry its own unique rhythm and charm, no two installations are ever the same.
Pinholes in the corners
Pinholes were part of the tile production process before 1860. A wooden board was used to stabilize the clay during cutting, leaving small pin marks - typically two, three, or four. This enhancement can be added to the P-4 tiles to recreate this authentic imperfection, contributing to their historic look and feel.
Crackled finish
Crazing refers to the fine network of hairline cracks that appear over time on antique ceramics, including Delft tiles. It occurs naturally with age, but we offer it as an optional finish to evoke the same aged appearance. If you're looking for a more antique, timeworn look, the crackled finish is a perfect match for the P-4 series.
