Painted by Hand: The Archive
Hand-painted stories
Explore a living record of our studio’s work, bespoke commissions and much‑loved designs spanning more than three decades. Established in 1992 and now based in North Cornwall, this archive celebrates slow, human craft: every piece painted by an artist, every colour mixed by hand.
Welcome to the Decorum Tiles Archive, a curated collection of one‑of‑a‑kind tiles and historic designs from across our history. You’ll find commissions created with interior designers, architects and homeowners alongside highlights from our off‑the‑peg ranges. The common thread is how we work: handmade, artist‑led and rich in colour, inspired by the natural world and, in recent years, by the light and coastline of North Cornwall where our studio is now based.
Browse by colour, motif, date or project to trace how our palette and ideas have evolved since 1992 — and how no two spaces we create are ever the same. This is not a catalogue so much as a creative record: an invitation to imagine what we could make, together, next.
