Zellige 4" x 4" Stone Look Wall & Floor Tile (Set of 48)

Features

• Zellige is the “it” tile trend that has been in style for centuries. And not much has changed. The irregular glazing, colors, and imperfections of Zellige evoke their handmade quality making them perfectly imperfect.
• About Zellige: No matter how you spell it, it is a beautiful tile. All our Zellige tiles are made by hand, with clay from Fez. To see more about this rare handcrafted art form please watch our video. You will see noticeable variations in thickness, depth, color, shade, and size, and some pits and cracks in the glaze, all to be expected. The handmade nature of zellige tiles is the key to their charm, imperfect uneven shapes allow the tiles to appear more fluid than flat, and corners and edges are not perfectly even. Another feature of note: it’s impossible to get a batch of zellige tiles in the same hue. Know that your zellige tile will be more ombré or patchwork colored than solid. As the tile is placed in the kiln tiles placed closer to the fire will retain different color characteristics than those placed further away from the fire. We also have an unglazed natural clay zellige tile that is not glossy. These tiles require special care when being used in an area where they may get wet or dirty. See notes on sealing instructions for these unglazed tiles. Experts recommend that zellige tiles be installed as close together as possible, with no joint and no tile spacers. Most installations include prepping the area with adhesive cement, placing the tiles, then skim-coating with a thin liquid joint cement or grout and wiping away the excess. When grout is used that is a similar color to the tile the final look appears almost grout-less.
