Old red floor tiles

A rustic, elegant floor in your home

Red tiles give your home a rustic and elegant look. Their colour recalls historic buildings. They were often used in old farmhouses, canal houses and listed homes, where you can still find them today. The material radiates warmth and tradition, making red floor tiles a beautiful foundation for interiors that call for an authentic, lived-in atmosphere. Their robust character means these tiles remain beautiful for generations. They are also easy to maintain: a mop, soap and water are enough to keep them neat.

Red floor tiles in different red tones

The old red floor tiles in our range come in various colour nuances. You can always find a tone that suits your interior. Want a more Mediterranean atmosphere in your home? Some tiles have a warm terracotta colour, ideal for that type of look. Other floor tiles move towards salmon pink, giving them a very light colour; these are also called French tiles. There are also tiles with light red tones and tiles that turn deep dark red. The colour differences come from the natural properties of the clay and the traditional firing process. This variation creates a lively, unique floor in which every tile has its own character.

A beautiful red colour suitable for every room

Thanks to their warm tones, red tiles are suitable for almost any room in the home. They look beautiful in kitchens, living rooms, garden rooms and halls, but also fit modern new-build homes, old farmhouses and classic interiors. The tiles are made from sturdy, durable material that lasts for years. Old red floor tiles are also easy to maintain, making them ideal for daily use in both busy and quiet rooms. Maintaining tiles is simple. Unlike natural stone floors, tiles can better handle acidic cleaning products. You can therefore clean your tiles easily with cleaning vinegar mixed with water.
