Trellis Floral Mosaic Splashback

This trellis floral splashback sets a repeating pattern of slender blue trellis lines across a cream ground, each diamond crossing framed by small tufted flower heads worked in rust, soft grey and warm gold. The hand cut tesserae are tiny, square and set tight, giving the piece the soft texture of embroidery rather than the hard edge of printed tile.

Trellis Floral Splashback Pattern & Design Composition

Layout: the trellis grid runs wall to wall in a steady rhythm, each lobed arch meeting the next at a small round medallion in deep blue and black. A flower motif sits inside every arch, upright and evenly spaced, so the eye reads the piece as one continuous sheet rather than a set of repeated tiles.

Palette: cream carries the field, with blue defining the trellis lines and rust, gold and grey picked out in the flowers. The neutral ground keeps the overall colour reading calm even though five or six tones are in play.

Handcrafted Mosaic Excellence

Tesserae: the mosaic is built from small hand cut square pieces, each flower head made from no more than a dozen tesserae set with care around the stem and petal shapes.

Finish: the surface is flat and even, with grout lines kept narrow so the pattern reads cleanly from across the kitchen, and up close every cut edge and colour change is visible.

Inspired by Ornamental Trellis Gardens

The design borrows from the clipped trellis work seen in formal gardens, where climbing stems are trained over a frame and flower where the lines cross. Here the mosaic turns that structure into a wall pattern, the trellis doing the work of a frame and the flowers filling each opening in turn.

Best Applications for Trellis Floral Splashback

Kitchens: the piece is designed as a splashback, sized to run the full width of a worktop and up behind wall cabinets, as shown here between two glass-fronted units.

Other rooms: the same panel would suit a utility wall or a scullery where a patterned, washable surface behind a sink is wanted.
