6x6 Olive Hill - Moonstone (Last Chance!)

Due to shifts in raw material availability, we are no longer able to produce our beloved Moonstone glaze color. However, we couldn't resist making one final batch of our Ennis House tiles in this exquisite glaze. We have just a few pieces left, so if you love this tile, be sure to place your order right away before they're gone!

Please note: Motawi glazes are applied by hand to each tile, resulting in subtle variations in color and surface texture. No two tiles look exactly the same, and our Moonstone glaze has an especially glorious glaze color range.

Frank Lloyd Wright (1867–1959) is recognized worldwide as one of the greatest architects of the 20th century.

Barnsdall Art Park, home to the Frank Lloyd Wright-designed Hollyhock House, overlooks Los Angeles from atop Olive Hill. In the early 1900s, heiress Aline Barnsdall envisioned the property as a new artistic community to be comprised of more than 40 buildings designed by Wright. Most of these buildings were planned but never constructed, like a school called the “Little Dipper” Community Playhouse.

Wright’s “Little Dipper” plans incorporated many textile block designs, including the one that inspired Motawi Tileworks’ 6x6 Olive Hill tile. Wright’s unexecuted design now finds new life in ceramic as a Motawi decorative tile and installation element.

• Motawi tiles are striking art pieces and installation accents. Each tile is made by hand and with heart in Ann Arbor, Michigan. We embrace variation and handmade beauty: Our time-honored methods produce a nuanced range of color with depth and translucence.
• Actual Tile Size: Approximately 5 7/8” x 5 7/8”. As each Motawi tile is crafted by hand, dimensions may vary slightly by up to 1/16".
• Tiles are 5/8" thick and have a notch at the back for hanging.
