Terracotta, meaning "baked earth" in Italian, has been cherished for centuries for its durability and inherent warmth. These tiles are robust and can withstand heavy foot traffic, making them a practical choice for frequently used areas. The natural texture also contributes to a slip-resistant surface, an important safety feature for spaces prone to moisture like bathrooms and kitchens.

The rustic style of these tiles pairs beautifully with various aesthetics, from Mediterranean and Southwestern to modern and bohemian. Imagine them as a stunning kitchen backsplash, a warm and inviting floor in your living room, or even an accent wall around a fireplace.

Installation and Care

Terracotta tiles are naturally porous, which means they absorb water. To ensure longevity and protect against stains and moisture, proper sealing is crucial, especially in wet environments like kitchens and bathrooms. We recommend using a penetrating sealer before grouting to act as a grout release and after grouting for optimal protection. For best results, allow the tiles and mortar to dry completely before applying any sealer.

When installing, prepare a clean, level, and dry surface. Acclimate the tiles to the room for at least 48 hours to prevent expansion or contraction issues. Use a notched trowel to spread the adhesive evenly, and apply thinset to the back of each tile for full coverage. For cutting, a wet tile saw is recommended.
