This beautiful handmade tile is made of polymer clay on a 6" square piece of treated hardboard and features one of my favorite Fossil watches. The watch face is filled with a light amber liquid and tiny gears, watch hands and screws float around inside. Also included are different types of leather and metal watch bands, an old key, a metal leaf, a green glass gem, miscellaneous jewelry pieces, a lock carved from hematite and a curious old pendant with very unusual polished stones. The stones appear black or a very dark gray but when light hits the stones it reveals a wriggly pale blue chatoyancy with a splash of gold. Subtle beauty!
Pool time at a local bar. At one point I looked down and saw these wooden tiles that looked like these could be moved to generate a pattern. Did not win a single game but Bell's Hopslam [goo.gl/ld35GB] was awesome.
An abstract of the Sydney Opera House. I love the pattern of the tiles and the forms of the 'sails'.

The raw materials used for making athangudi tiles are the local soil, cement, baby jelly and synthetic oxides.
Sand will be finely sieved and used as base material for the tile. colour oxide mixes were poured over a glass fitted with a tile mould.
the worker made the design by hand or sometimes uses moulds. over the colour dye, cement and sands were sprinkled and later pressed with a layer of cement and kept under sun to dry. The dried tiles are transferred to a water tank for curing.
