The pigment on the tiles is a historical tin glaze that has been developed using traditional formulas that’s creates natural differences in tone and depth. By a long arduous process, the perfect tint and hue of Green is achieved and then glazed onto the tile before the designs are scribed into it using the sgraffito technique.
The outcome is two large independent murals, encompassing 40 square meters that span across two floors in the restaurant and bar. We can’t wait for it to open!
