The Alicante Collection
Alicante
Black Terra Cotta — Spain
Black Spanish Alicante Terra Cotta is created using a unique combination of multiple clays, resulting in an elegant and distinctive dark chocolate coloration that adds a clean, contemporary element to a wide variety of design styles.
A History of Quality
The rich and distinctive tiles in the Alicante collection pair the traditional, rustic beauty of terra cotta flooring with a sleek, contemporary color palette. Their nuanced appearance results from the use of variable, naturally-occuring dark clays found throughout the Catalonia region of northwestern Spain. The clays are mixed, extruded and cut into individual bricks or tiles. Each piece is finished by hand to ensure the edging and surfaces capture the timeworn texture of authentic antique terra cotta. Produced with care and expert craftsmanship, this handmade terra cotta has an unparalleled depth of character. Once kiln-fired, the pieces are inspected thoroughly for quality and structural integrity, then carefully packaged and shipped for use in new installations.
