Handcrafted and handpainted highly glazed wall tile featuring the Australian Rainbow Lorikeet - Trichoglossus haematodus. The eastern Rainbow Lorikeet has a large blue head with orange or red breast and yellow-green collar. This bird is prolific in bushland along Australia's north and east coast, its striking rainbow colours acting as a camoflage amongst colourful Australian flowering trees and shrubs. The Lorikeet drinks nectar from blossoms with the aid of its brush-tipped tongue, helping to pollinate a large number of Australian wildflower species.
This decorative tile has been designed in Australia, and is handcrafted in a technique known as tri-colour glazed artware which originated in the Tang Dynasty. Each tile is unique and is handpainted and fired with brilliantly colourful and complex glazes. The artistic process of handpainting and glazing takes many hours, after which each tile is kiln fired for 24 hours at temperatures reaching 1000 degrees Celsius (1800 Fahrenheit), immortalizing the artist's design in stone. Each tile is then finished with a quality velvet backing and secure hook for hanging, and is packaged in its own presentation box.
Size: 350mm x 280mm
