Reinterpreting Historical Floors for the 21st Century

We cannot explain our love for European hand made terra cotta tile. The clay from the earth, the hand-molding, the wood-firing - the idea that each tile is created by a human hand following a tradition since man existed. We use this as our canvas upon which we bring back to life historical flooring from Europe and the Middle East. We know designers and architects with their creative understanding to mix the old with the new is the 21st century aesthetic.

European Terra Cotta Tile Will Be Reclaimed in 100 Years

Build to last. That's a European philosophy - proven when you cross the pond. Edifices and homes 400 years old still standing tall. It's the French Reclaimed Terra Cotta Tile that builders seek. Why? The traditions and manufacturing processes to make hand made European terra cotta tile creates a tile with strength, quality and beauty. Installed over thinset on a concrete slab, tight grout lines, and a surface texture that will just patina more over time...this is why we only use European clay for our tile collections.

What began with the Chinese, these techniques spread and transformed through North Africa, Italy and on up to the Netherlands, England and France. Whether it be called Majolica or Faience - it's a tradition that runs deep. Our Cuisine de Monet and 17th Century Delft Tile are two Collections we added to this deep pool of history - soon to be adding more with our Maison de Tunisie and our On the Road to Florence Collection coming Spring 2013.
