Trellis (Gris + Rouge + Chambray) Cement Tile

Trellis (Gris + Rouge + Chambray) Cement Tile

Red vine tendrils branch across a grey ground, small pale blue diamonds marking each turn and the center — angular and climbing rather than curled, closer to a garden trellis than a formal scroll. Every quarter is a fragment; laid four together, the branches gather into a single wreath, the diamonds lining up at each cardinal point. Each tile is hand-pressed from pigmented cement by artisans in Fez, following 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.

Sold 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 muted grey ground keeps the red from feeling too bold: entries, kitchen floors, and garden rooms that want a touch of vine without full color saturation.

Cement 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.

$15.75 per square foot.
