Handmade Hexagonal Terracotta Tiles
Appearance and uses of handmade terracotta
Handmade terracotta tiles are available in a wide range of formats, with square, hexagonal and rectangular designs among the most popular.
The hexagonal format is the most iconic choice for traditional terracotta floors, particularly in Provence, where hexagonal terracotta tiles are a defining feature of regional interiors.
Its geometry creates a continuous, balanced surface with discreet joints and a naturally smooth, cool feel underfoot.
Historically rooted in French interiors, the hexagonal tile is now prized for its timeless decorative character.
Today, interior architects and designers specify hexagonal terracotta for its warm, heritage-inspired look and its ability to bring understated luxury to both traditional and contemporary schemes.
Primarily used for floors, this format can also create distinctive wall features, especially with coloured or glazed finishes.
Marbre Import offers a broad selection of natural, coloured and glazed finishes to complement the atmosphere and palette of each project.
Coloured and glazed surfaces reflect both natural and artificial light, making them particularly effective in spaces that benefit from added brightness.
Glazing also provides a protective surface that simplifies routine care.
For larger areas, alternative formats can be considered to reinforce visual depth while retaining the authentic character of handmade terracotta.
Marbre Import complements its marble, granite and exceptional stone collection with handmade terracotta tiles. Natural stone and fired clay have been combined since antiquity, creating interiors with depth, rhythm and enduring material character.
Used for centuries in interiors and on terraces, handmade terracotta adapts equally well to heritage renovations and contemporary projects. Its thermal properties also make it well suited to underfloor heating.
Whatever the finish, terracotta feels naturally cool in summer and distributes gentle warmth in winter when installed over underfloor heating.
