- Birch Bark & Birds Tile
Originally painted in 2005, Birch Bark & Birds shows three nuthatches playing amongst birch trees, a common setting for many of Charley Harper’s pieces. The nuthatches provide a touch of color and energy to the forest scene while the birch trees display the simple, geometric beauty that Harper found in all aspects of nature. This tile’s playful scene and intricate design make this a must have for all Motawi fans.Mid-century modern meets Motawi mastery in these tiles based on the work of celebrated wildlife artist Charley Harper (1922–2007), a self-described minimal realist.Actual tile size: 7 13/16″ square
Tiles are 5/8″ thick and have a notch at the back for hanging.
Motawi polychrome tiles are striking individual art pieces as much as functional tile installation accents. They’re told that their tiles will give you serious credibility in gift-giving circles, and each one is made by hand and with heart in Ann Arbor, Michigan.Motawi embraces variation and handmade beauty. The bold heft of each Motawi tile reveals serious craftsmanship. And their time-honored hand-glazing methods produce a nuanced range of color with depth and translucence.
