Our Tiles
Winckelmans tiles are geometric and encaustic (patterned) clay tiles, manufactured in very much the same way as they were in Victorian times. They are amazingly versatile and extremely hard-wearing. Perfect for hallways, kitchens, bathrooms, decorative walls and splashbacks, conservatories, and garden paths, Winckelmans tiles have many unique qualities.
Shapes, Sizes, and Colours
Our tiles are available in more shapes, colours, and sizes than other ranges of geometric tiles - up to 25 stunning colours for the most popular square, triangle, and rectangle tile shapes. The range also includes octagon and hexagon tiles, round edge tiles, skirting tiles, and step tread tiles.
Fully Vitrified
Winckelmans tiles are the only range of geometric tiles available in the UK that is fully vitrified. This means they have a very low porosity: they are frost-resistant and impervious to water and stains. This makes them perfect for areas that are prone to moisture, such as bathrooms and kitchens.
