Overview
Dating from the 18th century (circa 1740), these Dutch wall tiles show a diamond flower motif. The corners are decorated with a stylised interpretation of the fleur-de-lis corner motif, creating a harmonious and decorative pattern when multiple tiles are installed together. The design reflects a long-standing Delft tile tradition, as similar diamond-framed floral compositions were already popular during the early centuries of Delft tile production, though their appearance evolved over time.
Condition and preparation
All tiles are reclaimed antiques and are fully prepared for reuse. They have been cleaned, desalinated and any soot residues have been removed. Each order is hand-selected to ensure a harmonious appearance in colour tone, glaze and surface character. If your project requires cut tiles, designated tiles with more visible imperfections can be supplied at a reduced price, helping preserve intact historical tiles.
Tile variety and stock
This collection consists of tiles depicting diamond flower motif within the characteristic diamond-shaped frame. While the composition is consistent, variations in brushwork and detail give each tile its own individual character. Representative images provide a clear impression of the variation within the design. A significant quantity of these tiles is currently available, making them suitable for medium to larger tiling projects. For the most up-to-date stock levels, please refer to the quantity indication (pcs) shown on the right-hand side of this page.
Complementing tiles
These tiles are best showcased when used together, allowing the diamond framing and corner motifs to form a harmonious and historically consistent wall composition. In addition, pairing them with plain white antique tiles, both first and second quality, can introduce visual balance and structure within the overall installation.
Tile size
Each tile measures approximately 13 x 13 cm (5.1” x 5.1”) and is roughly 7–8 mm (0.3”) thick. As the tiles are handmade and antique, slight variations in size and thickness are to be expected and contribute to their authentic character.
