Any Victorian Tile Specialists out there I would be very grateful for some advice!
I have bought a job lot of tiles from Ebay- originally was not considering an intricate border but given I have the tiles I am going to try..
Dilemma I have is when dry-laying (photo attached), the narrow bit at the entrance fits 8 whole diamonds (75x75) in the gap between the border, whereas when I extend the width past the pillars I can't get a full tile in and will need to make lots of cuts.
would be grateful for advice as to what would look best and be achievable, either
i) change design
i) continue straight up left edge (conscious there will be a large black filler needed)
iii) continue per photo and make cuts to each piece
Thanks!
