A PIECE OF CERAMIC HISTORY


Posted by Picasa

This is a small section of the Little Chapel in Guernsey. The Chapel is a work of art and a labour of love started by Brother Deodat in March 1914. The beautiful mosaic which covers the structure is made up of hundreds of tiny fragments of china tea cups and plates produced by companies like Spode, Wedgewood and Colclough. A bit of ceramic history preserved in the surface of possibly the world's smallest chapel!
