CHARLES antique cement tile effect

CHARLES old cement tile effect flooring

Inspired by the floors of grand hallways, vestibules, and reception rooms in Haussmannian buildings and 19th-century bourgeois residences, this porcelain stoneware tile faithfully reproduces the spirit of period cement tiles. Its geometric lattice pattern of diamonds, punctuated by eight-pointed stars and small circles, creates a graphically elegant design, framed by a floral frieze with undulating arabesques and an ancient Greek meander border.

The dense and structured central design, combined with a coordinated decorative frieze and matching corner pieces, allows for the creation of floor "rugs" framed with rare sophistication, particularly striking in entrances, hallways, and circulation areas.

Grand historic decor, without the constraints

This porcelain stoneware tile recreates all the nobility of ceremonial cement tiles with the resistance and practicality of modern porcelain stoneware. Its subtle and timeless palette—ivory cream, slate blue, chocolate brown, and sage green—is suitable for both old house renovations and contemporary interiors seeking a strong identity. Ideal for hallways, entrance halls, bathrooms, and meticulously designed commercial spaces.
