The article or design may be of many different themes, such as underwater life including fish, shells and sea plants. Other themes might include, but not be limited to, trees, flowers, vegetables, fruits, etc. These finished mosaics, tiles or figures can be displayed anywhere that will allow the mounting of a tile such as in bathrooms, on walls, ceilings, floors, swimming pools (interior or exterior), etc.
Claims4
A process and/or method of manufacturing multi-layered mosaics, tiles, figures or other objects limited in thickness to approximately 1″ and intended for mounting on floors, walls, ceilings, swimming pools or any other locations wherein said multi-layered mosaics, tiles, figures or other objects contain figures, designs or objects imbedded within said multi-layered mosaics, tiles, figures or other objects and comprising the steps of:
- a. making a frame, which forms a base and side walls, from a clear material referred to as plate form flexy glass;
- b. pouring a first base coat resin into said frame;
- c. allowing said first base coat resin to set;
- d. adding an imbedded object to said first base coat resin;
- e. pouring a second base coat resin to seal said imbedded object;
- f. allowing said second base coat resin to set;
- g. pouring additional layers of said base coat resins;
- h. adding additional imbedded objects if called for;
- i. limiting final thickness to 1″;
- j. pouring a base coat (type 2) with colors;

- c. allowing said first base coat resin to set;
- d. adding an imbedded object to said first base coat resin;
- e. pouring a second base coat resin to seal said imbedded object;
- f. allowing said second base coat resin to set;
- g. pouring additional layers of said base coat resins;
- h. adding additional imbedded objects if called for;
- i. limiting final thickness to design criteria;
- j. pouring a base coat (type 2) with colors;
