Hey, It's National Tile Day!
Every day is Tile Day for Heritage Tile as we pursue our mission to bring together natural materials, authentic forms, and timeless traditions in a portfolio of ceramic tile and stone collections.
Some days we immerse ourselves in the cultural traditions of Japan, curating our exclusive collection of "wabi-sabi"-inspired architectural ceramics, and sharing a Japanese aesthetic experience uniquely different from our own Western perspective.
Some days we resemble archeologists, uncovering artifacts from the past to become sources of design inspiration and technical guidance for our made-to-order mosaics in unglazed porcelain and marble.
Some days we seek out the ateliers of master craftspeople who apply traditional skills to fashion bisque from clays and minerals, formulate glazes from pigments and frits, and forge them into the exquisite tilework that we bring to discriminating clients a world away.
But most days that mission returns us to prewar America, interpreting the precise and sophisticated system of "subway tile" and porcelain mosaics of that era to assist our clients in restoring the original character to their period homes and traditional buildings.
