A rare twist on a classic favorite. Inspired by the real-life yellow cardinal—a one-in-a-million sight in nature—offers a fresh take on Charley Harper’s iconic design in tile. Handcrafted using Motawi’s signature Cuenca technique, the tile features raised lines that hold vibrant glaze, creating rich color and texture. The bright yellow bird stands out against a bone white background, making it a striking addition to any collection.
• Actual Tile Size: Approximately 3 7/8” x 3 7/8”. As each Motawi tile is crafted by hand, dimensions may vary slightly by up to 1/16”.
• Tiles are 5/8” thick and have a notch on the back for hanging.
Easels are an elegant option for art tile display. Fabricated from powder-coated steel, our easels are locally made and feature durable single-piece construction.
- Medium easel: holds any unframed tile larger than 3 inches (recommended for most of our tiles if unframed).
- Large easel: holds any framed tile or any unframed tile larger than 4 inches.
- Small easel: holds 3 and 4-inch tiles (unframed).
Our quarter-sawn oak frames, handmade by Dard Hunter Studios, are available with a natural Oak or Ebony finish. They can hang horizontally or vertically, or perch on our large easels. Frame features include mitered corners and stapled joints.
- This frame’s outer dimensions are 7-1/2" x 7-1/2".
- Frame width is 2".
- Any framed tile can pair with our large easel.
- Note: Frame woodgrain and stain opacity varies.
