I don't think I've seen my husband so excited as when he opened the tiles today! They are truly amazing. The quality, the slight bumpiness, and of course the translation of our silly prompts. All astounding.

In front of me is what appears to be an authentic Delft tile. The surface of the tile is mottled, and painted on to it is a picture of a man. The blue tones blur and fade into the edges. Delicate brush strokes are visible if you peer closely. It looks as though it were made many years ago. Except it wasn't.
