Country Floors is proud to make available to the discerning design market our Pedralbes Terracotta Tile Collection.
This wonderful material is inspired by the beautiful terra cotta floors that are a part of the Monastery at Pedralbes, a 14th century landmark in Barcelona. Each tile is made according to centuries old traditional methods with carefully selected clays to ensure an incredibly reliable, high quality terra cotta.
Choose between a supple pre-waxed finish or rustic matte finish. Available in two standard colors and 10 special colors with countless size and pattern options. There comes a time in the design process where the project shouts out for the unique. Classic old world terracotta, such as the Pedralbes Collection, will quiet things down with sheer elegance and beauty.
Terracotta can be translated, in a somewhat literal sense, as baked earth. It is typically produced, in its most basic version, by first combining clay and water. The mixture is then formed into the desired object/shape, and sun-dried or kiln-fired. The desired form or shape is arrived at by hand molding, machine pressing, extruding, or shaping in some other manner. The results might yield floor tile, pottery, roof tile, pipes, and more, in this case terracotta tile.
