Overview
PCM-30 – Three-dot
The Three-dot corner motif is available in Delft blue, manganese, or custom colors on request. You can pair these with plain tiles, decorated tiles, or entirely on its own, and can also be applied to any tile in our decorated series. When these tiles are put together, the painted leaves connect to form a rhythmic, symmetrical pattern that brings movement to the overall layout.
The tiles shown in the photo are painted in manganese, on our Grey mix base and with pinholes, but we can adjust and add any additional details upon request. Each tile is hand-painted, ensuring every piece is unique and carefully crafted.
Historic design
The Three-dot motif is a decorative take on the classic ox-head design, with added layers of meaning. The three bold dots symbolize the trinit, often interpreted as the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, or even the three stages of life. Leaf elements on either side line up across neighboring tiles, forming full leaves that add flow and rhythm to the surface. It's larger and more detailed than most corner motifs, which makes it stand out with its rich symbolism and eye-catching design, making it a great fit for both traditional and modern spaces.
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 these 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 this series.
