Saltillo in the Octagon pattern 8" "Especial" (with Talavera Tile)
You would be the envy of your neighborhood with something like this; absolutely mesmerizing is it not? Such vibrant colors to catch the eye. Who wouldn't want to sit and enjoy something like this everyday.
There is a lot going on in this creation, so let us break it down. All tiles are sold per piece.
To Start, the floor tile is our 8" Octagon "Especial" Saltillo sealed in our oil based sealer (semi gloss). It is in its natural color variations, but you can also get it stained and sealed in brick red, walnut, white wash, soft brown, or antique birch. On the floor with the Saltillo are Talavera tile 2x2 inserts in the T 33 pattern. They look lovely together.
The fountain itself is comprised of 4x4 Talavera tiles and the center is the Frutero Chico (20 piece) Talavera mural. The surrounding tiles are the T 31 solid blue, and the decorative T 33 & T 42 patterns.
(Saltillo tidbits: The area of Saltillo Mexico where the tile is made has the proper mix of clay, climate, and dedicated workers to produce one of the world's most popular tiles.
Saltillo tiles are not merely "sundried", they are also kiln fired. The way in which these tiles are stacked and positioned in the kiln produces their natural shading and range of colors. The stripping is caused by the overlapping of tiles when they are stacked in the kiln).
