Minis Collection - Cement Tile Meets Moroccan Zellij

Hand made cement Minis tiles are too stunning to call cute, but they are diminutive. The 2 1/4 inch Moroccan Zellij-inspired shapes can be used in a single color to create an undulating wave of color or the tiles can be mixed and matched to form an intricate carpet. Think Persian rugs crossed with marble. These rough-hewn gems are perfect on bathroom floors and walls, on kitchen backsplashes, and on fireplace surrounds. The colors are subtle and deep, signaling great taste and an authentic appreciation for the handcrafted. Each tile is individually handpoured and air cured.

These cement Minis tiles have an advantage over Moroccan zellig (zellige, zillij): they are stronger and less likely to chip because of their concrete composition. Furthermore, they are more environmentally friendly since they are air cured and do not require being fired in a kiln, a process that currently generates billows of black smoke across Fez. Do the right thing and savor every moment of it.
