Terracotta has come back into fashion in a big way, and porcelain has made it a far easier colour to commit to than the real clay tile ever was. You get the same warmth and texture, the same sun-baked character, without the sealing and ongoing maintenance that traditional terracotta demands.
Large format terracotta tiles keep grout lines to a minimum for a calm, contemporary bathroom finish, while a smaller decorative terracotta tile brings warmth to a feature wall, behind the basin, or inside a shower nook. It suits a country cottage or Mediterranean-inspired bathroom beautifully, alongside the green, blue, and pink tones our customers reach for most. On the floor, choose a naturally finished tile rather than anything polished, since gloss turns slippery once wet.
