Art Description
Gondolier Modern Mosaic Artwork is a handmade contemporary mosaic depicting the life and skill of a Venetian gondolier. Crafted from premium marble tiles and natural stones, the artwork brings a distinctly Venetian subject to offices, retail spaces, homes, and gardens.
The composition reflects the demanding training, apprenticeship, examination, balance, and physical strength required to steer and row through Venice's narrow canals, translating this traditional occupation into a modern mosaic artwork.
Materials and Craft
This handmade modern mosaic mural is crafted from premium marble tiles. The artwork is assembled on a mesh support using natural marble and stones.
Each mosaic is made from natural stones hand-cut by our artists. Natural variations in color and cut are an inherent part of the process, giving the completed artwork the visual character of individually crafted stone mosaic.
The artwork can be customized in size, shape, tile type, and color. It can also be adapted for floor inlays, wall decoration, backsplashes, countertops, and tabletops.
Design Details
The artwork focuses on the gondolier and the demanding tradition behind the profession. Gondoliers must train, complete an apprenticeship, and pass an exam before taking on the role, while steering and rowing through narrow Venetian canals requires balance and strength.
The Venetian subject gives the mosaic a strong sense of place, while the contemporary mosaic treatment and hand-cut natural stone create a structured interpretation of the gondolier's work. The design also evokes the traditional barcarola folk songs associated with Venice's waterways.
Where It Works
Gondolier Modern Mosaic Artwork is designed for a range of residential, commercial, and outdoor settings, including:
Offices Retail spaces Homes Gardens Wall borders, baseboards, and mirror framesThe artwork can also be customized for floor inlays, wall decoration, backsplashes, countertops, and tabletops.

Installation
You are 6 simple steps away to completely transforming your space:
Step 1. Gently open your package and unravel your mosaic. The mosaic is mounted on a fiber mesh backing and wrapped with a protective film from the reverse. Gently remove the protective film without damaging the mesh and remove any excess glue. Should individual stones have become loose during shipment, glue them back using a solvent-based adhesive.
Step 2. Using your trowel, spread a thin layer of adhesive or white thin-set mortar across the surface you wish to tile. If you’re placing your mosaic on a vertical wall or ceiling, you can always glue it to a wooden board and secure the board to the wall. In the case of large wall installations, nailing little nails into the gaps between the stones for a stronger seal is recommended. If the mosaic is to be laid in a humid or wet room, the laying area must be made waterproof. A special sealing adhesive should be used.
Step 3. Gently place the mosaic and use the flat end of the grout float to ensure the mosaic is perfectly flat and well adhered to the surface. Remove any excess of mortar with a damp cloth.
Step 4. Wait for at least 24 hours for the mortar to dry out. Once the mortar is dry, moisten the tiles using a damp sponge, spread your desired grout to fill the spaces between tiles using your grout float. Wipe down any excess grout, first with a dry towel, then a wet one. (Before applying the grout, make sure to glue back in place any fallen stone using a solvent-based adhesive)
Step 5. Once dry (will take approximately 24 hours), apply a marble and stone sealer.
Step 6. Take a step back and admire the space you’ve just transformed.

Uniqueness
Your mosaic has its very own fingerprint
Just like your fingertips, your mosaic will be unique in the world. There are two reasons for this:
1. Nothing’s set in stone. Yet. Before you buy, you can customize: For any surface: Turn it into a floor inlay or rug, wall decoration, backsplash, countertop or tabletop. For any space: Make it sparkle indoors or outlast sun, snow and cannonball splashes outdoors. For any style: Change the size, natural stone type and color.
2. All mosaics are not created equal. Each one is made of natural stones, hand-cut by our artists. This means that while your art will look like the image above, we can’t guarantee an exact replica. Your masterpiece will have slight variations in color and cut of the tiles that will make it truly one of a kind.
