Metal Pebble Mosaics

Metal pebble mosaics reflect light and colour and, when distressed, create an even more interesting effect.

Our sand-cast metal pebble mosaics can be surface-textured, patinated, set in different patterns, combined with stone, marble and glass. Set ranges do exist, however, we excel in creating mosaics to the client's specifications and brief.

Metals include bronze, copper, alpaca (German silver), iron and brass.

Sand-Cast Metal Pebble Mosaics

Sand casting allows individual metal forms to retain subtle surface variation rather than the visual uniformity of a machine-cut component. In a pebble mosaic, that irregularity is part of the design language: highlights break differently across each rounded piece, while patination, distressing and natural tonal change can make the field appear more layered over time. Bronze, copper and brass bring warmer metallic notes, while alpaca offers a cooler silver-toned character. Any proposed finish should be reviewed as a project-specific specification because different metals and patinas behave differently in use.

The collection sits within De Ferranti’s broader Pebble Mosaics family and can be considered alongside Stone Pebble Mosaics or Glass Pebble Mosaics where contrasting material, colour or reflectivity is required. The wider Mosaics - All Disciplines collection provides further references for borders, fields and mixed-material compositions.

Pattern, Patina and Project Review

Metal pebble mosaics may be set as continuous fields, organised into geometric arrangements or combined with stone, marble and glass. For specification, consider the intended pattern, spacing, grout or setting material, edge conditions, adjoining finishes and the degree of surface variation sought. Samples are particularly useful when agreeing colour, texture and patination before quantities are confirmed.
