A variety of shapes are produced in differing sizes, such as bars measuring 1 x 11 cm, cobble stones and bricks, layers, cloverleaves, Moorish patterns and trapezoids.. but also swimming pool coping, edging for steps, etc.
Enamelled terra cotta tiles for floors and walls
Enamelling offers a mosaic of approximately 200 colours. Enamels are transparent, crystal clear and bright. They render a gloss, satin or matt, metallic, moiré, iridescent or patina effect to the "bisque". The way in which the bisque is worked beforehand gives a smooth, clayey or figured final effect. Decoration of the tiles is always done by hand, singly or in panels. It is designed upon request and according to the customer’s imagination, unless the design already features in one of the collections.
Enamelled lava
The lava arrives in the factory as a slab. It is worked in 10 x 10 cm to 40 x 40 cm tiles or as a slab measuring up to 260 cm (cut according to the customer’s requirements as a table top, kitchen counter, bathroom cabinet, etc.). It can also be worked as a decorated panel. Lava can be used outside for viewpoint tables or road signs, for example.
