What Makes Stargazy Clover a Distinct Bathroom Choice
Stargazy Clover tiles bring a playful, star-studded pattern to your bathroom walls or floors. Designed in Cornwall and inspired by local stargazing and Stargazy Pie traditions, these 13 x 13 cm hand-screened tiles offer an infinite range of colours that can brighten even the darkest recess. The pattern is available on three different base tiles, each changing the final look significantly.

Stargazy Clover: 13 x 13 cm hand-screened star studded tiles available on three base tiles: English White (warm off-white gloss), Cornish White (bright white gloss), and Chalk White (soft white matt). The base tile choice affects the overall colour temperature and finish of the pattern, making it essential to order a sample to see the real effect.

Stargazy Clover: Hand screened so may vary in texture and finish. Each tile is unique, which adds character but also means you should order a sample to ensure you're happy with the variation before committing to a full order.
Choose Your Base Tile for the Right Mood
The base tile you select dramatically changes the Stargazy Clover pattern's appearance. English White is a warm off-white gloss that gives a cosy, traditional feel. Cornish White is a bright white gloss that makes the stars pop and feels crisp and modern. Chalk White is a soft white matt finish that subdues the pattern slightly, creating a more understated, tactile look. Your choice should align with the overall bathroom style and lighting conditions.
Layout and Installation Considerations
Because these tiles are hand-screened, expect subtle variations between tiles. This is part of their charm, but it also means you should open several boxes at once and mix tiles from different boxes during installation to achieve a balanced distribution. The 13 x 13 cm size is versatile for both walls and floors, but check that the tile is suitable for floor use if that's your plan—the supplied information does not specify floor suitability, so confirm with the seller before installing on a floor.
Trade-offs to Weigh Before Buying
The hand-screened finish gives each tile individuality, but it also means no two tiles are identical. If you prefer a perfectly uniform pattern, this tile may not be for you. The base tile choices offer flexibility, but you must order a sample to see the actual colour and texture in your space. The price of USD 3.02 (compared to USD 4.20 catalog price) is reasonable for a handcrafted tile, but factor in the cost of samples and potential extra for floor suitability testing.
