Warm, Timeless Aesthetic
Terracotta tiles offer a grounded, natural look that never goes out of style. Their rich tones and soft surface add warmth and texture to both traditional and modern spaces, making them ideal for those wanting a relaxed, earthy feel in their indoor or outdoor living areas.
Handcrafted Feel & Character
Each terracotta tile brings subtle variation in tone, shape, and texture—adding depth and individuality to your space. These imperfections are what make terracotta so appealing. Perfect for homeowners looking to create an inviting, lived-in atmosphere with authentic materials that evolve beautifully over time.
Indoor & Outdoor Flexibility
Terracotta tiles are incredibly versatile. Use them inside for cosy kitchen floors or sunrooms, or outside to create rustic alfresco areas and garden walkways. With proper sealing, they stand up well to daily wear and weather, offering a consistent design feel throughout your home.
Natural Beauty That Ages Gracefully
Terracotta tiles aren’t about sleek, polished perfection—they’re about raw beauty and honest materials. Made from natural clay and fired at lower temperatures than porcelain or ceramic, terracotta has a soft, matte finish that works beautifully in heritage homes, boho interiors, and earthy outdoor settings. Over time, the surface develops character, with subtle changes that add to its authenticity and charm.
These tiles are often used in living areas, patios, verandahs, and garden paths. Indoors, they pair wonderfully with timber, natural fibres, and neutral palettes. Outdoors, they complement greenery and stonework, offering a grounded, textural feel underfoot. While sealing is recommended to protect against moisture and stains, the care is simple—and the payoff in aesthetic value is worth it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do terracotta tiles need to be sealed?
Yes, terracotta tiles are naturally porous and should be sealed before and after installation. Sealing helps protect them from stains, moisture damage, and discolouration, particularly in kitchens, bathrooms, or outdoor areas. Regular re-sealing is also recommended to maintain their appearance and longevity over time.
Are terracotta tiles suitable for outdoor use?
Terracotta tiles can be used outdoors, but only if the right type is chosen and properly sealed. Look for frost-resistant or vitrified terracotta if you live in cooler climates. Their textured surface also offers good slip resistance, making them ideal for patios, walkways, and covered outdoor entertaining areas.
What is the difference between terracotta and ceramic tiles?
Terracotta tiles are made from natural clay and have a distinctive reddish-brown hue with a more rustic, hand-finished appearance. They are more porous than ceramic tiles, which are often glazed and mass-produced. Ceramic tiles generally require less maintenance, while terracotta offers a unique, organic aesthetic that improves with age.
