Handmade charm in new wall tile collection


Independent tile retailer Porcelain Superstore has unveiled its newest wall tile collection called Farrow. With its slightly uneven edges and subtle shimmer, Farrow has all the charm of an authentic handcrafted tile. But it’s actually made from durable ceramic, which makes it perfect for use in family bathrooms and busy kitchens. It can even be used to bring character to fireplace surrounds. It is available in four muted colourways. The Sage variant is muted and natural, while Sky exudes calm. Linen boasts subtle beige undertones for a lived-in look while the soft griege hues of Stone brings warmth to neutral interior schemes. Abbas Youssefi, Managing


Director of Porcelain Superstore, says: “We always pride ourselves on sourcing great looking tiles that work brilliantly in today’s fast-paced homes, and Farrow is no exception. “It has echoes of traditional Zellige tiles with its glossy, undulated surface and handcrafted feel, but it is very much made for modern life. “It is an incredibly versatile tile


with real depth for characterful, laidback interior schemes.” Each Farrow tile measures 10 x 20cm. It is scored down the middle and grouted to give the look of two smaller 10cm x 10cm tiles. Farrow is available now

Blue reigns supreme in a pair of new tiles launches


Introducing Sulis and Nineve from The Baked Tile Company. A part of the Curated Collection, this duo of ceramic tiles – which are suitable for both the wall and floor, have been hand-picked by Baked Tiles’ founder and interior designer Lesley Taylor.


Both were specially selected for their distinctive pattern and elegant navy-blue hues. Taylor says: “Blue is a timeless colour and brings a classic feel to interiors.


“Deep blue hues offer a sense of calm and confidence. They are bold and graceful and add richness and depth to homes.”


Curated Sulis, which was inspired by Bath’s iconic springs, is an ornate beauty. It uses cooler shades of blue and grey to brings walls and floors to life through its interlocking patterns, while a pop of dark green adds a sense of lushness.


Curated Nineve, with its intricate radial pattern, was inspired by traditional Mediterranean and Moorish designs. This stunning tile, with its navy blue and soft grey tones, can be used to create a focal point in any space.
