T A L A V E R A
Our Talavera tiles reflect a rich heritage that spans continents, offering you a chance to bring centuries-old craftsmanship into your space. While often associated with Mexico and commonly known as 'Mexican tile,' Talavera tile finds its origins in medieval Iberia (Spain and Portugal). Influenced by the intricate patterns and glazing techniques of Islamic art and architecture, each tile tells a story that enriches its history and design.

GROUT JOINT
We recommend between 1/8”-1/4" grout joint for rectified tiles, due to a natural variation in size. An additional deviation of ± 1/4" is considered acceptable for joint straightness and variation of flatness.
Although a tighter grout joint is achievable, we recommend consulting a skilled installation expert to increase the probability of a successful installation.
