These gorgeous, reclaimed terracotta parquet tiles give you the capability to create traditional parquet or herringbone flooring abundant in historical quality with a natural & earthy tonal variation throughout. This salvaged terracotta is robust, making it ideal for hard-working family spaces where a rustic feel or sense of history is needed. Reclaimed terracotta tiles make a unique and beautiful floor with a definite time-worn, rusticity that simply can’t be replicated in new terracotta.
A definite new favourite of ours, these long & narrow terracotta tiles will imbue any room or space with a delightful elegance teeming with a simple historic rusticity. This parquet pattern will open up any space, making a room more expansive and engaging the eye with its dynamic shape. Our reclaimed parquet terracotta can be installed in any number of settings including kitchens, pantries, larders, garden rooms, hallways and bathrooms.
Features:
- Each & every tile of reclaimed terracotta has a unique patina & appearance formed by decades of use and weathering. Pitts in the surface and irregular or worn edges developed over years of wear are abundantly evident.
- As these tiles are made from salvaged terracotta roof tiles, they are very well-aged and, when professionally installed, are extremely durable.
- The tiles will have varying thicknesses, may have subtle bowing and will definitely have colour & finish variations with every batch, all of which enhances their natural charm.
Further important features can be found under the specification tab.

As your fitter is guaranteeing your installation, we’d recommend following their suggested products even if they differ from those outlined in our sealing guide.

Flexibility and full specification will depend on the age and type of your sub-floor. It is highly recommended to hire an experienced terracotta fitter, as the tiles often require dry-laying first to blend the natural variations. |
| Blending | Shade and colour variation should be expected in our reclaimed terracotta tiles. It is often desirable to dry-lay product to achieve the look you want. |
