This Italian-made porcelain subway tile represents a refined exploration of industrial architecture, masterfully replicating the rich character of traditional hand-formed London cotto bricks. Featuring a deeply saturated, contemporary charcoal-black tone known as Nero Fumo, it showcases subtle tonal variation and an irregular relief surface that catches and beautifully multiplies light across internal spaces. Measuring 60 × 240 mm with a classic brick aspect ratio, the collection is engineered to deliver a highly texturized, raw, and refined linear appearance that transcends standard decorative tiles.

The broader product collection is anchored by a diverse, nature-inspired palette that includes Forged Blanc (White), Forged Clay (Beige/Ivory), Forged Brun (Brown), Forged Fire (Terracotta Red), and Forged Vert (Moss Green), as shown in the provided specification chart. This premium material palette offers expansive design flexibility for high-impact surfaces in kitchens, bathrooms, laundries, and commercial fit-outs. By varying the installation layouts—such as traditional horizontal running bond, vertical stack bond, or herringbone patterns—designers can craft striking feature walls, robust splashbacks, or unique wrapped curved surfaces.

Manufactured using advanced inkjet printing systems to guarantee realistic textures, the tiles feature a structured matte glaze finish with a V2 slight shade variation grading to ensure an authentic, un-manufactured brick effect while remaining highly hygienic. Crafted with standard production edges rather than sharp rectified cuts, they provide a forgiving layout line that mirrors real brick masonry. The durable glazed porcelain stoneware composition makes the collection fully suitable for both internal wall and floor applications requiring high stain and chemical resistance.

Proudly manufactured in Italy by the historic ceramic house Marca Corona, this porcelain tile features structural dimensions of 60 × 240 mm and a robust thickness of 8.5 mm. To support light commercial and internal residential use, it carries a certified R9 slip resistance rating, providing a dependable surface texture while remaining exceptionally easy to clean, cut, and drill on-site.

Please note that due to the specialized firing process required to achieve these authentic relief textures and color depths, inherent batch-to-batch variations in shade, size, and texture may occur between production runs. It is strongly recommended that buyers, specifiers, and builders request and view current physical samples from existing distributor stock before making final product selections and approving final installations.
