Over 150 designs

Fireclay Tile has always been deeply routed in tradition, which is why we are especially fond of our hand painted Cuerda Seca's. Using a proprietary wax resist technique we are able to create beautiful, authentic patterns. You will find traditional Mexican and Moroccan patterns along with more contemporary geometric styles.
