Old Havana Prado

On a trip to Cuba we were mesmerised by the intricacy of the floor tile design almost everywhere we went. It seems that no matter if it's at home, at work or in a bar or cafe the Cubans love of colour and pattern seeps into everyday life. Our Old Havana cement tiles, in vibrant shades and playful designs, are based on our travels in this fascinating country, and look consistently fresh whilst standing up to the climate here in the northern hemisphere.

1. Notes

   Encaustic tiles are handmade and extremely labour intensive. The production process includes many stages which are all carried out by skilled craftsmen, but this can mean they can vary in colour, tone,  pattern and size by 1-2mm We strongly advise you employ an experienced and competent tiler that has installed encaustic tiles before. These tiles always need sealing before grouting. If not using the Ardex FL grout we recommend and sell, then please test your chosen grout on a sample tile before applying it across the floor/wall. This is particularly important if you are planning on using a dark grout, as some finer grouts like Bal MicroMax can leave a residue on the surface.
