Overview
P-43 series – Colored Dots
The P-43 Colored Dots series is a hand-painted reproduction of an original Delft tile set from the early 20th century. The tiles are painted in yellow and green on our Poarte-H shade and form a repeating pattern that feels both cheerful and decorative. This is our standard configuration, but we’re happy to adjust the shade, finish, or detailing to fit your project
1 unique scenes
This playful series is based on antique Delft tiles from the 1900s, often referred to as “colored dots” or “colored cornerstones.” The pattern shows a yellow dot at the center of a green star, repeated tile by tile to form a rhythmic surface. These tiles are great for smaller projects or combine beautifully with plain white tiles for a bit of contrast. Each tile is painted by hand, so while the design stays consistent, small differences in tone and brushwork add a soft, personal touch to the overall look.
Pinholes in the corners
Pinholes were part of the tile production process before 1860. A wooden board was used to stabilize the clay during cutting, leaving small pin marks - typically two, three, or four. This enhancement can be added to the P-16 tiles to recreate this authentic imperfection, contributing to their historic look and feel.
Crackled finish
Crazing refers to the fine network of hairline cracks that appear over time on antique ceramics, including Delft tiles. It occurs naturally with age, but we offer it as an optional finish to evoke the same aged appearance. If you're looking for a more antique, timeworn look, the crackled finish is a perfect match for the P-16 series.
