Handmade tile comes with many perfect imperfections. We cut, glaze, and fire every tile by hand so it only makes sense that each one is slightly different from the next. You’ll get brush strokes, variation in color, slight differences in size, and a whole lot of added character to your space. These nuances to handmade, artisan tile are what make them special but it also comes with an extra need for care when installing. Here are 4 tips to guide you through your install and give you an understanding of what you can expect from our perfectly imperfect handmade tile… Glaze Testing Before we get into the nitty gritty of installing, we want to tell you a little about the why behind the imperfections of handmade tile. Our Care team has glaze testing down to a science. They evaluate everything from how much glaze is applied to how the tile is fired and take close note of the variation and surface effects that occur. There are three levels of testing; after each test the glaze is evaluated, and a decision is made to either progress the glaze to the next test or discard it. Level 1 (Pictured below): This initial testing is performed to get a general sense of what a glaze looks like on all three of our clay bodies, glazed with a thin, average, and thick application. Level 2: After this point, the glaze has been proven to produce pleasing results, and does not have any obvious defects. Level 2 testing demonstrates the breadth of results possible for the glaze when it goes through our firing processes. Level 3: Once a glaze has made it to Level 3 testing, it has been proven to be easy to apply, to work in our production kilns, and is a color that Creative would like to have on our color palette. This level of testing examines how the glaze performs in a full large-scale production firing. During this thorough testing, we find out all that our magical glazes have to offer and what sort of variation range we can expect. After going into our tile oven, the tiles take on a life of their own and morph into the perfectly unique specimens that we love so dearly.

Inspect the Tile Now that you have a better understanding about why our perfectly unique tiles are the way they are, we'd like to fill you in on a few tricks to installing handmade tile. First, we always recommend inspecting the tile. To a certain extent, the way our tile is glazed and fired, each one can be slightly different in appearance. Or if your order includes a high variation glaze, you can expect a beautiful range of tones. This is one of the reasons we recommend ordering a small overage of tile for your project. Go through your tile and closely inspect all the beautiful irregularities that handmade tile has to offer. Depending on the tile you choose, you'll see brushstrokes, slight differences in size, a variation in hue, and even a few traces of artisan finger marks here and there. While some people find the extra character charming, certain tiles may not fit your vibe. Pick out the ones that don't and set them aside! For more on handmade variation, visit our blog
