62,95€ VAT included

Artisan qualified product.
The ‘Gaudí panot’ reflects two constants in the architect's work: geometry and symbolism. This hexagonal-shaped hydraulic piece has a smooth bas-relief that refers to nature. The six-sided profiles are reminiscent of beehives, turtle shells or crocodile skin, and the figures that appear, a starfish, a conch shell and a jellyfish, evoke animals in movement from the marine world. The complete drawing can be seen with the seven hexagonal pieces well placed. The Barcelona's Passeig de Gràcia was paved with these tiles in homage to Antoni Gaudí.
