Tropical Bird Mosaic Splashback

This tropical bird splashback stretches the full width of a kitchen wall in a dense scene of leaves, red blooms and a long-tailed tropical bird perched at the left edge, its curved beak reaching into a scarlet flower. The composition reads left to right as a thicket of foliage, from broad dark-green leaves to pale pink-grey fronds and small white blossoms, with a second red flower opening near the centre.

Tropical Bird Splashback Pattern & Design Composition

Layout: the bird and the large flowers sit toward the left third, balanced by a run of layered leaf shapes that fill the remaining length, so the eye has a focal point before travelling along the greenery.

Palette: emerald and olive greens carry the piece, set against coral red, soft pink and touches of cream, with a pale grey-blue ground showing through gaps in the leaves.

Handcrafted Mosaic Excellence

Tesserae: small hand cut glass and stone pieces are fitted tightly along each leaf vein and petal edge, with the bird’s wing built from narrow slivers that follow the curve of the feathers.

Finish: the surface sits flush and smooth, with grout lines kept fine so the botanical shapes stay the visible feature rather than the joins between pieces.

Inspired by Tropical Foliage

The design draws on a tropical garden view, with the long-tailed bird feeding among hibiscus-type flowers and layered leaves of different widths and tones. It is a botanical scene rather than a repeating pattern, closer to a painted mural translated into mosaic.
