This elegant mosaic is inspired by Art Deco, hence the title. Composed of interlocking circles split into alternating halves of muted gold and cool gray, each section is intricately assembled with tiny tesserae that add texture and rhythm. The repeating semicircular pattern creates a sense of movement and harmony, while the dark grout and background lend a striking contrast that enhances the mosaic’s crisp symmetry.

Creation

Mosaic‑making has a lineage spanning thousands of years. Early civilizations created stone tapestries to adorn homes, honor culture, and impress guests. Antico Contempo brings this tradition into the modern day, utilizing ancient techniques in both restored and contemporary designs.

Each mosaic begins with research into historic patterns, materials, and techniques to capture their cultural and visual language. We reimagine these compositions for a modern setting while honoring their original spirit. In collaboration with mosaic artists, historians, and designers, we create works that unite antique and contemporary sensibilities, rich with color and emotion.

The process starts with natural stone like marble, granite, limestone, onyx, and travertine—never colored or dyed. Hand‑cut into tesserae, every piece is arranged with patience, artistry, and mastery of ancient craft. After weeks, months, or even years of meticulous craftsmanship, each mosaic is completed with a refined frame, ready for effortless display.
