Know before you buy
The finish features an Ochre glaze layered over a Caramel base. Because the Caramel bubbles through the top layer during firing, each tile displays a unique, textured interplay of colors rather than a flat, uniform tone.
These tiles have a variation rating of 5+, meaning you will see significant differences in color and texture from piece to piece. This high level of variation is intentional and contributes to the dynamic, handcrafted aesthetic of the installation.
Yes, these tiles offer good scratch and acid resistance, making them durable enough for most interior wall applications, including kitchen backsplashes. However, they are primarily designed for vertical surfaces rather than flooring.
Because of the unique glaze chemistry and textured surface, we strongly recommend using a grout release before grouting. This prevents the grout from staining the textured areas of the tile and makes the cleanup process much easier.
While Heath tiles are handcrafted and will always have natural variations, the sample kit provides a representative look at the glaze interaction and texture. For large projects, we recommend ordering the full quantity at once to ensure your tiles are pulled from the same production run.
