# M.C. Escher Museum Drink Coasters – Symmetry & Geometric Art Set of 4

## Museum Drink Coasters Inspired by Escher’s Symmetry & Geometric Art

Add a touch of mathematical wonder to your home with these **museum drink coasters** featuring four of M.C. Escher’s most captivating symmetry and geometric drawings. This set brings together **_Birds in Flight (Orange)_, _School of Fish_, _Birds in Flight (Brown)_, and _Swimming Stingray_**— each one a perfect example of Escher’s gift for transforming simple forms into mesmerizing patterns. Whether displayed on a coffee table, arranged on a bar, or used daily at your desk, these glass coasters bring movement, balance, and visual play to every setting.

Crafted from smooth printed glass, these **museum drink coasters** protect your surfaces while showcasing vibrant artwork sealed beneath the glass. This preserves detail and color while keeping the surface easy to clean. Each coaster includes four small rubber feet to prevent sliding and protect wood or stone tabletops from scratches and moisture. The set is part of the **Parastone Museum Gift Collection**, a line of European-designed décor items inspired by iconic works of art.

Each coaster measures approximately 3⅞ inches in diameter, with a solid feel that never feels heavy. The included black metal storage rack keeps all four coasters neatly together between uses. As part of our growing selection of artist-inspired tabletop accents, these pieces also coordinate beautifully with other items from our [Drink Coasters & Coffee Mugs collection](../../../collections/drink-coasters-coffee-mugs) and pair especially well with Escher pieces in our [Escher Tessellations collection](../../../collections/artist-escher-tessellations).

### Escher Designs Featured in This Museum Drink Coaster Set

These **Escher drink coasters** highlight the artist’s fascination with patterns, transformations, and the logic of symmetry. The orange-toned _Birds in Flight_ reveals Escher’s careful study of how shapes interlock in rhythmic motion. _School of Fish_ moves in the opposite direction, weaving a fluid system of repeated forms. The brown-toned _Birds in Flight_ uses contrast to show how positive and negative shapes shift the viewer’s perception. _Swimming Stingray_ brings a sense of calm, circular movement rooted in Escher’s explorations of nature.

Escher’s interest in symmetry and geometry influenced later movements in Op Art, digital animation, architectural design, and modern visual mathematics. His patterns continue to inspire designers, educators, and engineers today. With this set of **museum coasters**, you bring a small piece of that creative legacy into your everyday routine, enhancing your home with both functionality and visual delight.

### About the Artist: M.C. Escher

**Maurits Cornelis Escher (1898–1972)** originally trained in architecture, but his interest in drawing soon dominated his artistic path. After studies in Haarlem, he developed a visual language focused on pattern, metamorphosis, and mathematically structured illusions. His “impossible objects” and tessellations became internationally recognized symbols of creativity and logic. Escher’s legacy continues to influence mathematicians, artists, designers, and viewers fascinated by the intersection of order and imagination.
