As March ushers in longer days and a renewed sense of momentum, it’s the perfect moment to revisit the details that define exceptional interiors. At Earth Elements, we believe luxury is found at the intersection of craftsmanship, material integrity, and thoughtful design. Across all of our divisions, we curate manufacturers who share our commitment to enduring quality and elevated aesthetics. This month, we’re highlighting three distinguished suppliers whose heritage and innovation align seamlessly with the art of fine living.
Founded in 1820 in Birmingham, England, Samuel Heath began as a small brass foundry and has grown into one of the most respected names in architectural hardware and bathroom fittings. With over two centuries of manufacturing expertise, the company remains committed to traditional craftsmanship, precision engineering, and vertically integrated production—ensuring meticulous quality control from raw brass to finished product.
Their portfolio spans luxury bathroom fittings, door hardware, and an expanding cabinet hardware collection. The newest cabinet hardware line exemplifies their signature approach: solid brass construction, refined knurling, and hand-polished finishes ranging from heritage-inspired patinas to contemporary satin metallics. The scale and tactility of these pieces provide a tailored, architectural statement—transforming cabinetry into a design focal point rather than a background element. For projects demanding both performance and elegance, Samuel Heath delivers hardware that is as durable as it is sculptural.
Since 1987, Artistic Tile has redefined the American luxury tile market through a curated blend of global sourcing and proprietary design. What began as a boutique stone importer has evolved into a comprehensive design house offering marble, porcelain, glass, ceramic, and handcrafted mosaics. Their collections frequently bridge classical European influences with contemporary geometry—resulting in surfaces that feel both timeless and progressive.
Artistic Tile continues to innovate with large-format porcelain panels, dimensional stone reliefs, and bold mosaic programs that introduce depth and visual movement to walls and floors alike. Recent introductions emphasize texture and scale—think fluted stone, sculptural marble, and high-performance porcelain suited for both residential and commercial applications. For designers seeking to make a statement through materiality, Artistic Tile provides a palette that is equal parts artistry and engineering.
Established in 2007, Thompson Traders has built a reputation for handcrafted metal fixtures that merge artisanal techniques with modern performance standards. Each piece—whether hammered copper, satin brass, or hand-finished nickel—is shaped and finished by skilled craftspeople, ensuring no two fixtures are exactly alike. Their sinks and tubs have become a hallmark of bespoke kitchen and bath design, celebrated for their warmth and character.
Beyond their renowned sinks, Thompson Traders offers an expansive portfolio of handcrafted bathtubs, range hoods, bar and prep basins, vanity tops, and decorative metal accents. Their freestanding tubs serve as sculptural centerpieces, while custom metal range hoods introduce warmth and architectural presence into the kitchen. Each piece is formed and finished by hand, showcasing hammered textures, living finishes, and rich patinas that evolve gracefully over time. Engineered for both performance and longevity, these products deliver artisanal character without compromising durability—ideal for designers and homeowners seeking statement-making metalwork that elevates the entire space.
