Our Sea Tiles Express Your Shining Delight In Earth's Majestic
Oceans!
"The happiness of the bee and the dolphin is to exist. For man it
is to know that and to wonder at it."
So said Jacques Yves Cousteau, whose exuberant feelings for the world's
oceans never dulled throughout his long life. Ours is a water planet,
70% covered in oceans, lakes, rivers and steams. For so many of us, the
creatures of the sea evoke feelings of mystery, admiration and curiosity.
If thinking of the awing blue whale, the pretty jellyfish and the sublime
little seahorse makes you happy, why not express that good feeling in your
home? Our sea tiles are beautifully hand-painted, showcasing the spirit of
diverse sea life. They may be grouted into any tiling project, used as
wall art or fine coasters. Decorative tiles offer you a chance to
personalize different rooms in your home so that they say something
about the people who live there, and if you love the sea, our sea tiles
will let what delights you shine through!
A Dolphin Tile For Every Taste
At Cape Cod Treasure Chest, we keep adding new dolphin tile designs to our
inventory because our customers can't get us enough of them. Marine
biologists claim it's the smile on the face of the dolphin that has endeared
him to so many people as a friendly fellow-being, but we also look with
delight on his seemingly-effortless ability to jump, spin and perform
ocean acrobatics with such apparent joy. Our hand-painted dolphin tiles
capture the bright spirit of the dolphin and make a beautiful decorative
addition to backsplashes, showers and other indoor spaces.
Or, perhaps you've got a woodworking shop and love to make beautiful,
useful gifts for special people. What little boy or girl wouldn't be
delighted with a toy chest embellished with our dolphin tiles or other
sea tiles? Check out this
fantastic tile toy chest project
one of our customers emailed us. And what about a hope chest for a
soon-to-be-married daughter who loves dolphins or other sea life? Imagine
what handsome gifts our sea tiles can help you create, worthy of becoming
family heirlooms!
A Turtle Tile Theme Makes A Serene And Charming Room
They've inhabited the Earth for 200 million years and some have been known
to live for more than 150 years. Here is an animal that bespeaks calm,
patience and wisdom and whose humble form and sage face charms so many
of us. Divers have reported feeling utter joy when one of the giant sea
turtles has allowed them to hitch a short ride through the waves and
those of us who live near woodland ponds treasure the sight of tiny
turtles sunning themselves on the rocks. If you are looking to add a
timeless, classic symbol to a bathroom, fireplace, counter top or mosaic,
allow us to suggest turtle tiles for your consideration.
A very effective use of tiles as decorative as the sea tiles featured
on this page is to mix them in with beautifully-glazed solid color tiles.
Imagine a counter top done in earth tones - maybe sage green or copper,
embellished randomly with focal points of turtle tiles. Tiles are so
square and blocky, they can accidentally lead those new at interior
design to line them up like rows of dull soldiers. For a more natural,
interesting finished look, aim for a more scattered placement of plain
tiles vs. picture ones. The end result will be freer and draw the eye
here and there, rather than looking like a blank because the pattern
is too regimented. Our advice - let our turtle tiles swim freely about
your project and you'll love the effect!
Twinkle, Twinkle Little Starfish Tile
Few other creatures of the sea lend themselves so naturally to design as
do starfish. With their starry rays, they add immediate interesting forms
to any design project and the beautiful hand-painted tones of our starfish
tile selection bring just the right touch of color where you want it.
We've got beautiful seashell tiles here on our Sea Tiles page, too, and
with a little imagination, you can start envisioning a lovely spa-like
bathroom embellished with these incredibly ornamental images. Our
starfish tiles come in a variety of sizes so you will be able to find
the exact dimensions you need to bring that twinkle of delight to a
shower, tub, back splash or mosaic. Gorgeous in a bright, airy kitchen,
too!
For a long time, our culture thought of space as the 'final frontier',
but over the past few decades, scientists have taught us that our own
seas are virtually unexplored territory. Do you know that to date we
have explored less than 5% of the Earth's oceans? Our first trips into
the deep have yielded wonders, marvels and oddities that might just as
well hail from outer space, so 'alien' are they! Imagine a world of fish
flashing neon lights, giant squids and lakes of salt on the ocean floor.
For us landlubbers, starfish can be a kind of touchstone to these unseen
places in the deeps. Clinging to rocky shores in plain sight, they hint
at the beauty of what we might see if we could take the plunge!
