**★★★★★ — HALINA Marston, Nov. 2020**

> We love our back splash.  It is a quality work.  I love the idea of a signature tile.  I am the only one I know that has a signature tile of the artists that designed the tiles and the focal designs over the stove.  I love the color and the shading you blended.  In my tax practice I have a few clients that install tiles. They tell me that the quality and the price is exceptional.  The focal tiles over the stove are beautiful.

**★★★★★ — HU-811604273, Nov. 2020**

> Lilyworks had just the look I have been looking for in my kitchen!  I loved working with Paul & Esther to plan and custom order the tiles!  Great quality and service!  One of a kind tiles!

**★★★★★ — Teri Ohs, Jan. 2020**

> We worked with Paul to design a custom backsplash for our kitchen remodel.  We were able to go to the shop to see the tiles and discuss sizes and patterns.  The work was done in a timely fashion, and looks great!  We are extremely satisfied and would definitely recommend Lilywork.

**★★★★★ — bill\_fowler61, Nov. 2019**

> Paul and Esther are incredibly professional, quick to respond, and above all masters at their craft. Their beautiful tile fills a void in the industry, and we are thankful to have had a partnership with Lilyworks for 5+ years.

**★★★★★ — HU-660777604, Nov. 2019**

> Lilyworks Artisan Tile designed, made and installed the tile back splash in my kitchen.  Working with Paul and Esther was great.  We couldn’t be happier with the results.  At the early stages we worked with a designer but Paul also helped us with the color scheme and scale.  He came out to the house with samples multiple times.

> I wholehearted recommend Lilyworks’ beautiful products!

**★★★★★ — Janis Mink, Feb. 2019**

> We used Lilywork tiles for our bathroom renovation in the summer of 2018 because of their beautiful colors and sheens. We have been living with the tiles for a few months now, and every day I am happy I chose these tiles.  I love our color arrangement and the feel of the surface underfoot, which works well with our radiant floor heating. For the main part of the bathroom floor we used 6 inch square tiles, mixing colors and lustres in whites, blues, greens and earth tones. For the shower floor we chose smaller 4 inch square tiles. The shower floor is also mixed in color, with a very few vibrant tones mixed into the nature tones present in the main part of the room.
> I had a lot of fun arranging the adjacency of colors in an irregular but harmonious pattern, and the person who installed the tiles did an excellent job with them and kept the colors as ordered. They look good with our white plumbing fixtures.  It went pretty fast and everything came out very well. I love the handmade look and feel.  Somehow the room seems quiet, personal, natural and warm (and a little fun) because of the colors and textures of Lilywork tiles.

**★★★★★ — Jackie Principe, Nov. 2016**

> Beautiful, well made tile!!!! The look, feel and quality is outstanding. The service I received from Lilywork mimics the quality of their work-- excellent.  The tile is a neutral color back splash in my kitchen but stands out and has recieved compliments by everyone who visits. I love it.

**★★★★★ — Howard Levey, Nov. 2016**

> Esther and Lilywork Artisan Tile are the friendliest and most professional company that offer amazing hand made tiles that our clients just love. They have a beautiful collection of unique tiles and colors that make our job easy. If you like hand made tile, you need to see what Lilywork has to offer first before you look elsewhere.

## Community Q&A

**Q: Hardware source?** *(in Photo Questions)*

What manufacturer is this hardware from and what is the finish? I can't tell if it's an antique brass or copper.

A: Hi Brittany, Salt Box Kitchens completed the design process for all other materials other than tiles for this project and would have that answer for you. Thank you. Here is their website: http://saltboxkitchens.com/

**Q: Would you please share the tile manufacturer and color?** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: sorry, I was referring to the 2x6s in the picture above

**Q: White kitchen with blue pearl counter, any suggestions for the backspl** *(in Photo Questions)*

I need ideas for the backsplash.  Some are telling me that is better to do the backsplash with the same blue pearl granite.  Any suggestions.  Thank you

A: It adds more interest to change the material from countertop to wall/splash. It also emphasizes the change in space. Too much stone can create a heavy feel and a ceramic backsplash is a visually appealing surface, easy to clean.

**Q: what was  the cost of the tile?? and cost of the countertop** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: The tile is hand-crafted and approx $60/sq.ft.

**Q: love this tile: is it the mint color or turquoise** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: This tile is the 6" Byzantium Textured Field in Turquoise

**Q: beautiful kitchen** *(in Photo Questions)*

what did you use for back splash tile?

A: Sorry, I am not sure what the flooring is. We crafted the tile for this project.
