keano77 Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 We have these lovely genuine Elon (http://www.elontile.com/collections/terra-cotta/) Handmade Mexican Terracotta Saltillo floor tiles left over from our previous kitchen. They are unglazed (picture 2) in warm shades of pinks, yellows and reds, which once treated become much darker and richer in colour (see picture 1). The tiles are handmade using a traditional production method which means that the tiles are liable to exhibit chips, lime pops and minor blemishes, which adds to their individuality. Standard size is nominal 30x30, however they may be nearer to 29.5x29.5cm.We have 43 tiles that are without chips (making just short of 4 square metres allowing for grout and an additional 10.5 tiles that have small chips on the edges which can be used as off-cuts near walls and appliances.All terracotta needs to be sealed. We treated ours in the old fashioned way with several coats of Boiled Linseed Oil and then a mixture of white spirit and linseed oil to bring out the shine (picture 1) Cost for the 43 tiles would be around ?85 but we are looking for ?20 ono for all the tiles (43 unchipped plus 10.5 extras).They are very heavy so you will need transport.
