About This Design

Portuguese blue and white wall tiles with angels mouse pad

Portuguese blue and white wall tiles with angels mouse pad

Blue and white patterned tiles have become synonymous with Portugal. Portuguese wall tiles of Capela das Almas de Santa Catarina - St Catherine's Chapel - in the city of Porto, Portugal. This chapel is famous for its exterior use of azulejos of a religious nature. Capela das Almas (Church of the Soules) exterior wall is covered with blue and white tiles, more than 10,000. This chapel was remodeled in 1801 and the tiles on the exterior were only added in 1929.  The blue and white tiles have become the most dominant trend. This is a reproduction of a photo I took so you'll notice the irregular surface due to the passage of time. The tiles on the facade portray the life of two saints adored at Capela das Almas: Santa Catarina and São Francisco de Assis. These two angels and the fountain pouring water are a small portion of it. The phrase O jacto milagroso de uma fonte translates to The miraculous jet of a fountain. Above it, there's a scene representing the miracle of water. The farmer, to whom Francis lent his mule as a mount, was tormented by thirst. Water comes bubbling out of the rocks in answer to the Saint's prayer and the farmer drinks. The two Franciscans comment on the scene. This product is ideal to send/offer to a Portuguese friend, to a relative, to a Portuguese American or someone of Portuguese descent, or to someone who appreciates Portuguese traditions or the beauty of azulejos.

First time ordering with Zazzle so did not know what to expect but it was delivered promptly and has a lovely feel. Wanted a new mouse mat & only ones available were $2 cheap & nasty. Use it with the Peacock Eyes at the top and it looks and feel great. Very happy with printing colours excellent.

The experience buying from Zazzle was great -- the custom made product arrived much faster than I expected (I am in Australia) and they kept me updated with progress emails. The product itself is good quality and I like the simplistic elegant design. The only criticism I have is that it's not really accurately represented by the picture provided. I thought that the mousepad would be a non-porous or laminate surface and as such the gold writing would actually shine against the soft pink. However the design is printed on a thick fabric surface, so the gold colour is just the shade of gold but doesn't stand out from the pink background. (See picture) FYI the soft pink is stronger in real life than in my personal picture. Good quality printing, slightly different look to what I expected. It also smells quite strong on arrival but it's only been a day so this may fade. FYI the soft pink is stronger in real life than in my personal picture.
