Reclaimed English Terra Cotta Tiles
Reclaimed square terra cotta tiles made in England. Originally installed over sand, these tiles were removed from an English garden patio. Naturally aged over time by the elements, the tiles have great character, texture, and variation of color. The tiles are clean and do not have the old mortar attached to them.
These warm and lovely tiles would make an excellent mudroom or laundry room floor, powder bathroom floor, or kitchen backsplash in a new build.
The tiles bear the “B.C.M Rowley” stamp on the backside. “B.C.M.”, which stands for British Commercial Monomarks, was based on the invention devised and developed by William Morris. Established in 1925, the company launched a service to provide a London Post Office Box address and mail forwarding service to its customers. Each business was to have its own unique code and use the letters “B.C.M.” along with an identifying name to easily identify the manufacturer (Rowley in this case) and provide a method of correspondence.
Rowley Brothers Ltd. was a tile and brick manufacturing company formed by brothers Tom and William Rowley in 1889, in Chesterton, Staffordshire, England. The company also owned and operated The Metallic Tile Co., in Newcastle-under-lyme, Staffordshire as well as the Hanford Tileries. The company remained in the family until 1980 when it closed its doors.
Found in England, circa 1930
Tiles are approximately 6” W x 6” D x 3/4” thick
The lot includes 134 pieces
The lot is approximately 33 square feet in total
Tiles have been brushed off, but not scrubbed or chemically treated. Once installed, these tiles could be treated if a more consistent look is desired.
Good overall condition. Small chips, losses, light staining, and surface wear, consistent with having been used and reclaimed.
A penetrating sealer is recommended, not only to protect the tiles but to darken and richen the colors.
Suitable for indoor floors, most wall applications, wet areas, and exterior patio flooring
Available for pick up, local delivery, and nationwide shipping.
