This is the frieze of tiles I made last summer for the Jose Show. They were bought by someone who wanted to have them framed rather than set onto a wall. Framing several tiles is harder than just the one tile like this one. In this case the set of 15 tiles have to be fixed with epoxy resin to a back board, without grout. The surrounding frame is used in the correct way (not back to front, as in framing a single tile). The frame rebate is just under the edge tiles; the center tiles are resting on a smaller piece of hardboard to which they have all been glued. A second hard board is fixed to the back of the frame.

this is beautiful. when are you going back to work?
Thanks Varda, staying in UK for a few more weeks, going to the V&A this week to see the ceramic exhibition.
thanks for the exlelent idea concerning how to clean the scraffito, and for the warning about the black slip. I am so new to these materials, that I am probably not aware enough to the nusty toxic side of them.
yes, please tell us about the exhibition, and have a good time!
I love the tiles with the flowers. They are so pretty!
