{"product_id":"cartouche-blanca-gris-cerulean-cement-tile","title":"Cartouche (Blanca+Gris+Cerulean) Cement Tile","description":"\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eCartouche (Blanca+Gris+Cerulean) Cement Tile\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eA cream ground carries a hand-drawn vine, its leaves and tendrils rendered in soft gray, with a cerulean ribbon threading through the scrollwork like a ribbon laid over a garden gate. The line work is loose and organic rather than rigid geometry, giving the tile a quality closer to botanical illustration than tile pattern.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eCartouche is a rotational quarter-design, and the way you set the corners changes the whole story on the floor. Set corners-in, the four vines curl toward a shared center and bloom into a single medallion, a quatrefoil flower at the heart of every four-tile group. Set corners-out, that same vine fans away from the seams instead, opening into a looser, trellis-like lattice with no single focal bloom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eEach tile is hand-pressed from pigmented cement by artisans in Fez, using a hydraulic process that has shaped North African floors for well over a century — the pigment set not by fire, but by time and pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eSold by the square foot, with each 8\" x 8\" tile covering just under half a square foot — about two and a quarter tiles per square foot of coverage. The quantity you select at checkout is square footage, and we'll round the tile count up so your installer never comes up short. The pattern's soft palette and garden-vine motif suit a kitchen floor, a powder room, or a sunroom where a hint of botanical detail feels at home underfoot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eCement tile carries the fingerprints of its making — soft variation in tone and a slightly porous, hand-finished surface that no machine could replicate. We recommend sealing every tile before installation and again after grouting — a small ritual that protects the pigment for decades to come. For larger runs, order ten percent beyond your total square footage to allow for cuts and pattern matching.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e$15.75 per square foot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eDimensions: 8\" x 8\" x 0.375\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eSKU#: CEM084\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Badia Design Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43270990790718,"sku":"CEM084","price":15.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/7474\/2334\/files\/IMG_9419.jpg?v=1788282792","url":"https:\/\/www.badiadesign.com\/products\/cartouche-blanca-gris-cerulean-cement-tile","provider":"Badia Design Inc.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
