Blooming Sun
This exquisite, handcrafted stone mosaic, featuring the radiant sun and vibrant, multi-colored sun rays, draws inspiration from the free-spirited beauty of Bohemian Art. Concentric yellow tiles form a glowing center, radiating out in alternating rays of deep navy and bright orange.
While Bohemianism began as a 19th-century countercultural movement rooted in freedom, artistic expression, and resistance to materialism, its spirit found new form during the 1960s and 1970s. In that era, a new generation revived Bohemian ideals — embracing nonconformity, handmade craftsmanship, and a deep love for nature, music, and mysticism.
The 1970s aesthetic often reflected this renewed Bohemian energy: bold colors, sun and celestial motifs, psychedelic patterns, and tactile materials like macramé, mosaics, and natural stone. Spaces were layered, soulful, and expressive — a stylistic overlap between the free-spirited Bohemian lifestyle and the graphic, optimistic visuals of retro design.
In this way, the mosaic’s sunburst form and vibrant palette serve as a visual meeting point: where the philosophical heart of Bohemianism meets the joyful, graphic sensibility of the 70s. The result is a piece that feels both deeply rooted and timelessly radiant.
Each tessera is hand-placed, creating an artisan texture that reflects the handcrafted ethos of boho interiors while nodding to the clean lines and vivid palettes of mid-century modern style. Whether placed in a living room, hallway, or creative space, this mosaic offers a statement that feels both nostalgic and refreshingly current.
