    lovely floor, but i'm surprised they couldn't afford a new chair to go on it with that much cash to throw around.

    Like the surface finish of the first tile, dislike the design of both of them. Reminds me of those 80's kitchen floor tiles that were all the rage

    I wouldn't rule out spend hideous amounts of money on a tile but it would need to be a lot nicer than those. Suppose it's personal taste but this smacks of exclusivity rather than the quality and beauty of the tile

    they will have dinner partys or afternoon tea and scones and say "they are hand painted don't you know,very exclusive,one of a kind".

    I quite like them, reminds me of the days when Provençal's were popular but those are much nicer..

    I could find loads of things to spend that sort of money on, but each to their own isn't it

    I cant ever imagine having a spare £8 let alone £800 per M. A lot of people think that its crazy to spend £10,000 on a car when you can get a old banger for £200. Each to there own.

    If that is the tile they want and they are willing to pay the price.

    they spent 2 weeks in cutting tiles and 3 weeks hand painting inserts , but i will say the designer was right pig moron comes to mind. the lobby area was 47m2 and i would say i thought it was the wrong product to be used limestone will not wear well over time , as for the hand painting of the tiles they all had to pointed same direction (star of david) so you where welcomed into the home , with black slate inserts worked out how much it cost £57000 for tiles -Designer fee £25000-artist-£52000 know thats what you call over charge total cost £134000 excluding fitting and believe you me we where near that lol
