Tile saying
Colleagues like youare one ina million
Work & colleaguesA leaving gift that says the quiet part out loud. Teams rarely tell each other this while the work is still going on, which is why it lands hardest on somebody’s last afternoon.
- Baked into the ceramic, not printed on top. Colourfast and waterproof.
- Arrived damaged? You get a free replacement.
Where this saying comes from
Built on the old “one in a million” idiom, a phrase that predates modern office culture and originally just meant statistically rare. Applied to a colleague, that rarity becomes gratitude rather than arithmetic.
When to give it
A farewell, a work anniversary, or a promotion that takes someone to another floor. Have the team sign the back or add the years worked, and it stops being generic the moment it is handed over.
About this design
Delft flower corners around a painted circle give a workplace gift a bit of ceremony without tipping into a plaque. The italic classic serif keeps three short lines balanced inside the ring.
