ORigins HANDMADE CLAY TIL

An Homage to Earth

Long before modern manufacturing, clay was shaped by culture, necessity, and place — pulled from the earth and transformed into surfaces that sheltered and told stories of the people who made them.

Each Origins tile carries the quiet signature of the maker, a testament to the timeless craft of hand-formed clay.

In a world increasingly shaped by machines, Origins returns to this ancient material, honoring the traditions that first gave it life.

What type of variation should I expect with Origins clay tiles?

Tonal variation is a natural characteristic of handmade clay tile and part of what gives Origins its distinctive, artisanal appeal. Differences in shade and color are to be expected, and some tiles within the same color batch may display more noticeable variation than others. Please refer to each product description for the designated variation level.

What type of finish do Origins clay tiles have?

Each Origins clay tile is finished with a colored liquid enamel that is applied by hand, creating its signature glossy surface. The tiles are then fired in kilns at temperatures exceeding 1050°C, a process that defines both the final color and the subtle texture of the glaze.

How thick are Origins clay tiles?

Origins clay tiles are approximately 2 cm thick. As with the natural color variation found in handmade clay tile, slight variations in thickness are also to be expected. These subtle differences contribute to the authentic, traditional zellige look that defines the collection.

Are Origins clay tiles suitable for heavy traffic areas?

Origins clay tiles are suitable for heavy traffic areas when installed on walls. However, they are not recommended for floor applications that experience heavy foot traffic. Their handcrafted nature makes them ideal for interior wall applications, where their artisanal character can be fully appreciated.

How will my sample compare to my actual order?

Origins is a handcrafted product and natural variation is part of its beauty. Differences in color, shade, and size can occur from tile to tile and between production batches (kiln loads), so it is unlikely that your sample will be an exact match to the material you receive with your full order. These tiles are designed to celebrate organic texture and subtle variation, creating a more artisanal, one-of-a-kind installation
