Product Description
The Relief Tile "Ernesto" features a regal composition hand-painted in high-relief, blending elegance with geometric precision. At the top, stylized ivory motifs resembling crown shapes rise upward, highlighted by bold red accents. Below, cobalt blue fields and a decorative brown band create strong horizontal balance. The lower section is adorned with interlocking turquoise and white geometric patterns, adding rhythm and depth. Set against a rustic white and honey-toned background, the raised contours emphasize contrast while showcasing artisanal craftsmanship. This design, influenced by Spanish colonial and Moorish ornamentation, is ideal for framing stair risers, enhancing backsplashes, or decorating fireplaces and accent walls. Its structured layout and vibrant palette bring cultural richness to both rustic and elegant interiors.
