What’s firstly so wonderful about Emma Britton glass splashbacks is how they bring the outside in year-round, for a sophisticated pop of vibrant florals even in the darkest winter months. Bringing nature indoors brightens up your home and reenergises the space, and can even have a positive effect on wellbeing too. Emma’s joyfully coloured floral splashbacks depict British garden blooms in their finest glory. In Watercolour in Grey, you’ll spot painterly purple iris, tall delphiniums and Emma’s signature foxgloves. Together for a soft, floral look that’s so calming to live with.

Designer Splashback Advice

With many purple tones in this hand-painted design, Watercolour in Grey is a great splashback for pairing with a coloured range cooker. Clients frequently comment how their Emma Britton glass splashback creates a real focal point to their kitchen, so coordinating with a similarly beautiful yet functional appliance only adds to the centrepiece effect. A Marine Blue Everhot is a sophisticated, tonal choice, or you might like a traditional grey cooker for a more tranquil look. As you can see, Watercolour in Grey makes a fantastic aga splashback for country kitchens.

In terms of wall colours, Watercolour in Grey really stands off a lighter coloured wall. Keep it fresh and bright with a pale, ashy grey or white. Or alternatively opt for a paint with purple undertones for cohesion, such as Farrow & Ball ‘Caluna’. 

The beauty of this splashback design (and indeed any of those in the Maple Collection) is its easy to clean, wood effect background. Natural textures are combined with the practicality of glass for a modern look that’ll stand the test of time in your busy kitchen. This considered design detail also adds a layered quality and gives movement, for all the tactile appeal of a wooden look, without the upkeep. Similarly sleek marble or polished concrete worktops will coordinate wonderfully. 

Whilst being brilliant in kitchens, Watercolour in Grey is also a fantastic choice for bathroom splashbacks. Use behind a vanity or in a downstairs loo, to give the surprising effect of flowers blooming behind the sink. A small glass splashback like this is ever so quick and easy to install too, if you’re looking for a simple space transformation. Bring out the delicate details in Emma’s illustrations with a fresh wall colour and white porcelain sink.
