Imported Terra Cotta
Handcrafted Italian Tile and Pavers
Handcrafted in Italy by our master artisans, Terre Cotte Mediterranee (Mediterranean Terra Cotta) originated from a painstaking research into ancient Sicilian clay-working methods dating back to the 10th century B.C.. The terra cotta biscuit, composed of a mixture of red clay and volcanic sands, is “shaped” by hand according to the old traditions and baked at a temperature of 1000° centigrade, which provides an extraordinary resistance to wear and tear as well as to atmospheric agents.
Thanks to a meticulous study and
patient research on the colors and decorations of old
terra cotta floorings (from the 16th century to the early 1900s), we
are able to reproduce, and even slightly modify, the
series belonging to the "Terre Cotte Mediterranee"
collection. The light and colors, typical of the
Mediterranean countries, are reproduced on each single
tile and all of them are decorated by hand.
All these features contribute to a much sought-after quality and rare flooring which can endow our modern spaces with ancient emotions.
