Badger Study No. 5 – Accent Tile

The portrait of a badger forms the centrepiece of this countryside scene. Its distinctive black and white striped face is rendered with soft detail, set against a backdrop of rolling green hills, a mature oak tree, and a winding stream. In the foreground, a medley of British wildflowers, including purple foxgloves and bluebells, grows at the badger’s chest. The entire composition is enclosed by an intricate, interlocking border of oak leaves, acorns, and berries, characteristic of the Arts and Crafts style.

With its gentle, earthy palette and pastoral theme, this mural brings a comforting, rustic character to a living room or a country-style kitchen. Its symmetrical, contained design would work particularly well centred above a fireplace or an AGA, becoming a focal point that celebrates British wildlife.

A handsome badger peers from a field of wildflowers, framed by an elegant border of oak leaves and acorns.

Every mural is printed and kiln fired to order in Somerset, England, on ceramic tiles in your choice of three sizes — 10cm, 15cm or 20cm — and two finishes, Gloss or Matt. Colours are fired into the glaze, so the design is permanent, scratch resistant and completely waterproof, making it suitable for kitchen splashbacks, bathrooms and showers.
