Métro Tile


Métro Tile brings handcrafted character and an authentic design aesthetic inspired by the Paris métro.  Be assured that your tile designs will express the depth, durability, and authenticity that machine-made tile simply cannot replicate.

Consider the details that define honest craftsmanship and timeless design.

All Hand-Pressed Tilework

Every Métro Tile is hand-pressed.  By contrast, many popular "handmade" tile collections are actually formed using a "cookie-cutter" machine. Métro Tile defines the authenticity that comes from the tilemaker's skilled hands.

Deep-Translucent Gloss Glazes

Translucency adds depth and dimension; the crackle finish adds character and drama.  A 24 glaze palette includes versatile satin finishes, essential neutrals and vibrant accent color options.

Vast Assortment of Formats and Pattern Shapes

From nominal field formats to specialty pattern options, Métro Tile gives designers a rich compositional vocabulary for creative expressions in tile.

Art Nouveau-inspired and exclusively available through Heritage Tile, Métro Tile is hand-pressed - not machine-cut - producing a tilework surface with a liveliness and variation that a machine-cut manufacturing line can never replicate.

Each tile carries the quiet authority of the atelier: a deep-translucent gloss glaze with a signature crackle finish, a pure white clay body that renders colors with exceptional vividness, and a robust ⅜" format built to perform over the long term.

This is the tile for interiors that are meant to be remembered.
