Frequently Asked Questions

Are the Original Style Artisan 225mm Brick tiles suitable for floors?

No. The Artisan collection is exclusively designed and engineered for interior wall applications. The ceramic body and delicate gloss glaze finish do not possess the structural thickness, durability, or slip resistance required to safely withstand foot traffic on residential floors.

Do these gloss glaze tiles require sealing?

While standard gloss tiles typically do not require sealing upon installation, it is important to note that the Winchester Artisan glazes can naturally 'craze' (develop fine hairline cracks) over time due to the handcrafted nature of the ceramic body. If crazing occurs, you must apply a crackle glaze impregnator to protect the tile. If you are specifically purchasing an 'Artisan Crackle' variant, sealing before and after grouting is absolutely mandatory.

Can I use the Artisan collection in a shower enclosure?

Yes, with the correct installation method. They are perfectly suitable for shower walls and wet areas (Wet Wall), provided they are installed with a highly water-resistant adhesive and grout. If any crazing occurs on the glaze, you must maintain a protective sealant layer to ensure water does not penetrate the ceramic in high-splash zones.

What layouts work best with the 225x75mm format?

The elongated 225x75mm format is incredibly versatile. A classic staggered horizontal brick-bond will naturally make a room feel wider. Stacking them vertically (either straight or staggered) draws the eye upwards, making ceilings appear taller. Alternatively, they look exceptional when laid in a traditional herringbone pattern for a dynamic, highly architectural focal point.

How do I clean and maintain these ceramic tiles?

Maintenance requires a gentle approach to protect the luminous glaze. Simply wipe the tiles down regularly with a soft cloth and a mild, pH-neutral bathroom or kitchen cleaner. You must absolutely avoid harsh bleach, acidic cleaners, or abrasive scouring pads, as these can permanently scratch and damage the beautiful surface.

English Heritage Inspiration

The Original Style Artisan collection is specifically designed for those who wish to infuse their home with the tranquil, grounded atmosphere of the English countryside and historic interiors. The tiles are defined by their heritage colour palette, with many shades named after charming Suffolk towns and villages. From the serene blues of 'Snape' to the warm, earthy neutrals of 'Helmingham', these sumptuous tones offer an immediate sense of calm and historic warmth.

Handcrafted Appeal

While these brick tiles offer the reliability of modern manufacturing, they brilliantly capture the charming imperfections of authentic handcrafted ceramics. The Artisan range evolved from the historic process of refining raw clay, pouring, pressing, moulding, and shaping. Every single piece is carefully crafted and skilfully finished, resulting in a luminous gloss glaze with a beautiful depth of colour that bounces light effortlessly around the room.

Contemporary Elongated Format

The 225x75mm elongated brick format provides a highly adaptable, contemporary twist on the standard metro tile. This extended profile is exceptionally versatile and serves as the ultimate choice for creating striking, highly architectural herringbone patterns. When laid horizontally, they gracefully elongate walls to make rooms feel wider, and when stacked vertically, they naturally draw the eye upwards to enhance the feeling of height in smaller bathrooms and kitchens.

Installation & Care Tips

To achieve the best possible finish with your Artisan tiles, we strongly recommend unpacking and blending tiles from multiple boxes prior to fixing to ensure the glaze variations are evenly distributed. Note that Winchester tiles and mouldings may naturally craze over time. If crazing occurs, or if you select a specific 'Crackle' variant, the tiles must be sealed with a high-quality impregnating sealer. For ongoing maintenance, simply wipe the surface down regularly with a soft cloth and a mild, pH-neutral cleaner, avoiding any harsh or abrasive chemicals.
