Decorative Ceramic Tiles

Decorative Ceramic Tiles

Recording decorative ceramic tiles for the home such as house number, names, room names, etc?

I treat sandblasted tiles. Use rubber sheets (consult a roofing material supplier), make your template and glue used to stick on the tile. You could buy the equipment for blasting yourself, but it would be expensive. I am looking for a local place that does sandblasting and see what they would charge would probably be better than just a few.

Description

Our Tile Art is hand-crafted, painted and kiln fired to insure quality, beauty, and integrity. Our Tile Art will last forever (if not broken) and come with a very glossy, glazed finish. They ship ready to hang or stand (built in stand). The tiles may also easily be used as a traditional building tile. They are the perfect way to brighten up a kitchen back splash or bathroom mosaic, create a beautiful table or tiled floor, or just used for home/business decor! Our products are created through a unique process called tube-lining. It takes a lot of time and patience, an artist draws many details throughout a blank white-fired tile with special tools loaded with a fluid clay. This placed clay acts as a color barrier that contains the over-glazes painted into the sections. Next the tile is hand-painted with rich colorful glazes that set within the clay lines. At this point, the tile is complete and needs to be kiln fired. We put our tiles through an elaborate kiln fire process. They are cooked then cooled throughout several cycles lasting 24 hours. During this kiln firing process, our kilns reach temperatures of over 2000 degrees Fahrenheit. This creates very detailed lines and preserves the colors to last.

Features

  • 100% Hand Painted on Premium White-Fired Tiles
  • Hand Tube Lined and Crafted so you can Feel the Lines
  • Kiln Down Fire Baked at 2000 degrees Fahrenheit for 24 hours
  • Features Vibrant Colors, Fine Details, and Fade-Resistant Glazes
  • Ready to Hang or Display Standing with built-in Hardware! Great for Construction Uses too!
