Project Ideas
When a client initially makes their request, they often have a vague idea of subject matter or color. Once a theme is decided, creative inspiration takes over. We work closely with clients to make sure every aspect meets their needs and tastes.
SMALL PROJECTS, KITS & INSERTS - Need something subtle but unique? Smaller projects can add character to small spaces. Great for the casual crafter or home hobbyist, kits are easy to assemble in little time.
Inserts: Smaller projects can be framed and used as wall plaques, trivets, or name and address signs. Order smaller projects preset on mesh for direct installation.
Kits: Great for the do-it-yourselfer, casual crafter, or home hobbyist, kits are easy to assemble in little time. Kits include numbered tiles, instructions, and installation advise. Each tile is numbered on the back according to a map for easy setting and installation.

PRICES - due to the uniqueness of every project, prices are based on a per project basis. Please contact Sundby Art & Tile with your project measurements and details to get your free estimate.
Each tile is unique and reflects the personal care and attention given to produce this art form. Because each tile is formed and set by hand the cost is somewhat higher than machine made tile.
Prices are determined by the volume of raw clay used and calculated in Canadian currency. Average tile size and thickness determines detail and time involved to create each project. Hand mixed custom glazes to color match interior decorating requirements also takes time and extra care. Therefore, these factors are used to calculate the price per square inch of each custom created tile project.
DISCLAIMER - Due to the nature of clay, variations in size and color may occur.
Slight variations in shape and color of the tiles will result from many different factors. Every tile is a unique piece of art. Irregularities do not affect the structure of the tile, and when installed, the natural beauty of the handmade tile is enhanced. These eccentricities of handmade tile are what make them unique and desirable.
Hand crafted tiles can be irregular in shape, have mildly uneven surface with slightly undulating edges. No single tile may represent the full range of color and size variations and variations may occur from order to order. We cannot guarantee that tiles ordered as add-ons will exactly match those from an original order. The matching of glaze colors to fabrics, wallpaper and other tile samples will generally not be exact and must be considered an approximation.
Warranty: We guarantee our tiles against defects in material and workmanship for a period of one year from date of purchase. We do not guarantee tiles against etching, chipping, discoloration, or scratching and we can't be responsible for materials or methods used by any installer other than Sundby Art & Tile.
