Beneath the Surface

A History of Quality

The beauty and distinctive character of our Reclaimed Terra Cotta collection are without parallel. These traditional handmade flooring and roof tiles, first installed in the 18th and 19th centuries, are carefully salvaged from Spain, Belgium and various locations throughout France, including Provence, Normandy, Bordeaux, Burgundy, Lyon and the Loire Valley. Inspected for both authenticity and quality, these antique terra cotta tiles display rich warmth and a stunning, patinated surface from centuries of wear and use. Once reclaimed, the terra cotta undergoes an intense cleaning procedure that eliminates all traces of dirt and organic matter that has accumulated. They are then carefully packaged and shipped for use, to bring their rich history to new projects around the world.

Why do we love it?

The rustic visual interest and traditional, Old World Charm it brings to new roofing installations.

How does it look?

Reclaimed Bordeaux Roof Tiles are rounded, with a moderate color variation in darker orange and red tones, ideal for more rich and rustic roofing.

How does it wear?

After centuries of use, minor to moderate additional wear can be expected, further enhancing its rich patina.

Where can I use it?

Reclaimed Roof Tiles are suitable for use as roofing in warmer climates.
