As an American tile producer with over 20 years of experience, it is always of interest to me to pose the question: does authenticity matter? If you care about that question, you might look a little deeper into the craft of tile making and our uniques.y American heritage tilework.

Fireclay produces their tile using a “cookie cutter” process and roller kilns. This is a highly mechanized process used around the world for its low manufacturing cost, and not at all “handmade” as it is marketed. As far as the glaze options are concerned, quantity is not the same as quality.

If you value authenticity in the tilework you specify for your client’s projects, I would be interested in your review of the Heritage Tile portfolio of truly authentic tilework. You can find personalized design services and professional educational programs at heritagetile.com.

Ali, that is so exciting! Designing interior design offices are so hard because we need them to be beautiful and reflect our work but that's expensive and creates bigger overhead. I hope it all goes well for you and thank you for commenting and being a subscriber!!
