Songbird Botanical Mosaic Splashback

This songbird botanical splashback fills a framed panel behind the hob with a dense arrangement of flowering stems, curling leaves and a pair of birds caught mid-perch among the branches. The composition reads almost like a textile print translated into stone, with every petal and feather built tessera by tessera rather than painted on.

Songbird Botanical Splashback Pattern & Design Composition

Layout: the design sits within a cream mosaic border and spreads across the panel in a loose, all-over arrangement rather than a strict symmetrical grid. Large daisies and layered blooms anchor the lower corners, while slender vines and smaller buds thread upward and across to fill the middle ground.

Focal birds: two birds in dark plumage with warm rust underbellies sit near the centre of the piece, one perched low among the foliage and one with wings lifted, giving the whole panel a sense of movement among the still flowers.

Handcrafted Mosaic Excellence

Tesserae: small cut stone and glass pieces in varied shapes follow the curve of every petal, leaf and feather edge, with outlines picked out in dark grey and black to separate each motif from the pale background.

Finish: the surface is flat and even, polished to a smooth face that keeps the mosaic practical for a splashback position, with grout lines kept tight around the smaller detail work in the birds and flower centres.

Inspired by Botanical and Bird Motifs

Theme: the piece draws on classic botanical illustration, pairing garden flowers in amber, gold and cream with birds rendered in a naturalistic rather than stylised manner. The palette stays warm throughout, built from honey, rust, sage and charcoal tones against a light ground.
