Antique Terracotta Tiles

These antique, grey-smoked terracotta tiles from the Netherlands bring a rustic and historical charm to any space. Originating in the 18th and 19th centuries, these reclaimed terra cotta floor tiles were crafted in traditional ring kilns. A unique firing process involved simultaneously removing oxygen while adding energy, causing the iron in the clay to oxidize and resulting in beautiful shades of grey.

History

Handmade from local Dutch clay, these antique terracotta tiles were slowly fired in kilns to produce a distinctive color variation, from cool grey to soft blue. Commonly used in Dutch farmhouses, these tiles offer a glimpse into history while complementing both modern and rustic interiors.

Interior Applications

Perfect for both rustic and contemporary spaces, these antique terracotta floorings add warmth and character. In farmhouses, they enhance a vintage aesthetic, while in modern settings, their subtle grey shades provide a stunning contrast. Ideal for kitchens, living rooms, or even outdoor spaces, they bring a welcoming atmosphere.
