Design & Layout Tips
- Mix one dominant colour (e.g., antique blue) with neutrals (beige/grey) to avoid visual overload.
- Install the 9×9 inch tiles in a diamond (45°) layout for extra elegance and elongation effect.
- Use grout in a slightly contrasting shade (e.g., charcoal with beige tile) to accentuate pattern edges.
- Blend with simple, modern furnishings so the floor becomes the focal feature rather than competing with busy décor.
- Pair warm-white lighting (2700-3000 K) to enhance the earthy tones and bring out the vintage character.
Installation & Care Notes
- Ensure a flat, level substrate and correct bedding mortar for vitrified tiles.
- Dry-lay key pattern tiles to plan symmetry of heritage motifs before final fixing.
- Use a matching or non-staining grout suitable for floor use; seal if required.
- Clean regularly with pH-neutral tile cleaner and soft mop. Avoid strong acids or abrasives which may dull the matt finish.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are these antique patterned tiles suitable for floors?
Yes — these tiles are specifically manufactured in a vitrified material for floor use, and designed in the 9×9 inch size to suit everyday floor applications.

They come in the 9×9 inch (approx 230 × 230 mm) format, making them great for vintage-pattern repetition while being manageable to install.
How do I maintain them?

Can I use them across my entire floor or only in zones?
