Missing the Boat – Accent Tile

The scene centres on a friendly boy dressed in a green hat and carrying a satchel, standing on a simple wooden dock. He raises a hand towards a departing steamboat, where passengers and a sailor return the wave from the deck. Stylised blue waves swirl around the pier and boat, with two small fish swimming below, all set against a soft, cream coloured background.

The nautical theme and gentle, storybook quality of this mural make it an excellent feature for a family bathroom. Its soft palette of blues, greens, and browns works well with light-coloured interiors, adding a playful narrative to the room.

A cheerful boy in a feathered hat waves goodbye from a wooden pier as a steamboat embarks on its journey across the water.

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.
