Pewabic highlights the city it has called home for 115 years – and counting – with this hand-painted map detail of downtown Detroit.

After Detroit’s devastating 1805 fire, Judge Augustus Woodward modeled the streets after Pierre Charles L'Enfant’s Washington D.C. hub-and-spoke grid, creating Detroit’s distinctive street design, detailed here from Grand Circus Park to the Detroit Riverfront.

Handcrafted in the Arts and Crafts tradition, these frames are made from quarter-sawn white oak by a Michigan craftsman and are ready to ship.

  • 4” x 8” tile with frame measures approximately 8" x 12"
  • Handcrafted in Detroit
  • Individually hand-pressed and hand-painted by Pewabic artisans
  • Pewabic logo stamped on back
  • Slight variations in glaze and firing results ensure each handcrafted Pewabic piece is one of a kind
  • In our Lagoon glaze
