Description
This hope rainbow plaque is a small rectangular ceramic tile that sits inside a simple frame. The front carries the single word "hope" in black lower-case lettering, set above a raised rainbow of nested arches pressed into the tile in a pale tone, so it reads by light and shadow rather than colour. The tile has a soft stone colour with a fine speckle through the glaze, and it hangs within a natural wood-tone frame from a cream cord threaded through a round bead. Turn it over and the reverse reads "After the rain comes a rainbow", so there is a kind word on both sides.
Because it hangs from its own cord, it needs nothing more than a small hook or a picture nail to go up. We like it on a narrow stretch of wall by the front door, beside a mirror, at the end of a bookshelf or looped over a dresser knob in a bedroom, where a single word can do a lot of quiet work. It suits a calm, natural scheme of linen, pale wood and stone tones. As a gift it says something kind without needing a long card, a small token for anyone who could use a little encouragement.
The tile is ceramic, with a speckled glaze on the front and the line of words printed on the reverse, and the cord passes through a small hole at the top of the tile so it hangs within its frame. To keep it looking its best, dust it now and then with a soft dry cloth, and if the tile needs more, wipe it gently with a barely damp cloth and let it dry fully before hanging it back up. For gifting, wrap it in tissue with a handwritten note that picks up the line on the back.
