The Foundations Collection: Quick Ship & Budget-Friendly

By Blair Hagensen

Foundations Web Header Calcite Feldspar White Wash Tusk

From colors and sizes to price and availability, our beloved Foundations Collection just got a major glow-up! Enjoy a new, lower price point, trim options and Quick Ship status so you can get your project on track with tried and true handcrafted tile colors and shapes.

Starting at just $18/SqFt, this collection is your chance to procure our handcrafted Original Ceramic Tile at a price point everyone can love. Whether you want to fulfill a high-volume order, stay within a certain budget, or get bestselling American-made tile fast, our Foundations Collection does it all.

We’ve thoughtfully curated this offering to include our bestselling Original Ceramic Tile neutrals in three versatile and popular sizes–plus two trim options! Choose from Calcite Gloss and Matte and Feldspar Gloss and Matte in sophisticated 2x8, classic subway 3x6, and 4” Hexagon, with 3x6 and 2x8 long edge bullnose trim. Even better? The entire collection is available in our Quick Ship Shop, which means it's stocked and ready to ship in five days or less.

Clean and classic, Calcite Gloss is finished with a polished gloss glaze for a fresh and modern look. This is our most luminous shade of white that’s virtually free of all pigment and undertones, and continually one of our top-selling glazes because it fits so easily into any space and design style.

This bright and clean glaze loves natural light and pops with a like-new luster long after it’s installed. Calcite Gloss has very low color variation, so if you’re looking for a more uniform look for your project, it's an excellent choice.

Warm up your white tile dreams with this glossy ivory white. Soft and subdued, Feldspar Gloss is an excellent choice for a clean look in a setting you don’t want to appear cold, such as a shower or bathroom wall tile. It offers very low color variation so your installation should be quite uniform throughout.

Feldspar Gloss's antiqued white tile shade offers creamy ivory undertones for an inviting, vintage-inspired quality that seamlessly works with virtually any design style from modern to classic. Its glossy finish will add a polished look to your space, with a shiny, semi-reflective sheen that pops in the light.

A favorite among designers like Sarah Sherman Samuel and Becki Owens, Feldspar Matte adds sumptuous sophistication to any space. The warm white glaze is tinged with a hint of khaki for a charming light beige result that’s equally at home in organic modern design as it is in more traditional spaces.

Finished with a slip-resistant, non-reflective sheen, Feldspar Matte is an excellent choice in spaces you want to feel cozy and inviting. You should see little color variation from tile to tile, meaning the color throughout the total installation should be reasonably consistent.

If you’re looking for a sophisticated white tile, Calcite Matte is just the ticket. This radiant warm white has a hint of barely-there beige undertones and a soft, smooth appearance that makes for an ultra-sophisticated installation anywhere in the home, including kitchens, bathrooms, laundry rooms, and beyond.

Featuring a matte finish and minimal color variation, the understated elegance of Calcite Matte makes it a favorite in Scandinavian and minimalist design–although the versatility of the white glaze means it fits beautifully into virtually any aesthetic. Plus, our matte glazes are slip-resistant, making Calcite an excellent choice for residential and commercial floors.

Trim Options

Finish your projects with a professional look courtesy of in-stock Bullnose trim. A bullnose is when a piece of field tile is rounded and glazed on its edge. This rounded edge helps cap your tile off if it doesn’t extend to the ceiling, cabinet, or corner, creating a smooth transition between the tile and the wall. It can also help create rounded, polished edges for niches, pony walls, shower curbs, and more.

Trim is sold by the linear foot, and like the rest of the Foundations Collection, this option is stocked in our Quick Ship Shop and ready to ship in 5 days or less!
