Product Description
The "Garden Crest Tile" balances ornamental complexity with bold symmetry, presenting a floral-geometric hybrid anchored in Mexican decorative tradition. At the heart of the tile, a stylized green crest radiates from a central yellow dot, connected by fine black lines to four red circular accents aligned in a perfect cross. Surrounding this core, navy blue quadrants cradle heart-shaped golden petals, forming a vibrant clover-like frame when the tile is repeated. The use of clean white background and delicate linework provides visual balance, making this tile a standout for entryways, colonial courtyards, or tiled focal walls with historic flair.
