Manufactured with precision in Original Style’s Devon-based factory, these external wrapping pieces (often referred to as REX tiles) are essential for traditional "full-wall" tiling. Unlike standard tiles with raw edges, these glazed ceramic corner pieces allow the colour and gloss to continue around the corner of a wall or window reveal. Available in the range's signature translucent glazes, they offer a high-gloss, easy-to-maintain finish that preserves the authentic architectural integrity of period interiors.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an external wrapping piece?

An external wrapping piece is a tile where the glaze has been applied not just to the face, but also around one or more edges. This allows the tile to be used on an external 90-degree corner, showing a finished glazed edge rather than the raw side of the tile.

Why should I use these instead of metal tile trims?

In period properties, metal trims can look out of place. Wrapping pieces provide a historically accurate finish that looks far more integrated and luxurious. It gives the impression of solid ceramic architecture rather than a surface-applied covering.

Do I need these for window reveals?

Yes, if you want the most professional look. Using wrapping pieces around a window reveal ensures that as you look into the window area, you see the beautiful gloss finish of the tile rather than a grout line or a trim.

Are they available for both field tiles and half tiles?

Yes. Original Style produces these wrapping pieces to coordinate with the 152x152mm field tiles and the 152x76mm half tiles. Ensure you select the size that matches your main wall tiles.

How do I calculate how many I need?

Each wrapping piece is 152mm high. To cover one linear metre of an external corner, you will need approximately 6.58 tiles. We always recommend ordering a 10% surplus for cuts and potential wastage during installation.

Why Choose Original Style Artworks Field Tile External Wrapping Pieces?

The Original Style Artworks external wrapping piece is the definitive solution for high-end period restorations. In traditional Victorian and Edwardian tiling, plastic or metal trims were never used; instead, "wrapping" tiles were employed to navigate external corners, ensuring the deep, rich glaze remained visible from every angle.

Product Specifications:

  • Dimensions: 152mm x 152mm (6 x 6 inches)
  • Thickness: 10mm
  • Material: Glazed Ceramic
  • Finish: High Gloss / Glazed Edge
  • Suitability: Indoor Walls / External Corners
  • Quantity: 6.58 pieces per linear metre

The Authentic Way to Finish Corners
At 152x152mm, these wrapping pieces align perfectly with Artworks Field Tiles. They are indispensable for finishing Bathroom Wall Tiles where a wall ends at a doorway or when tiling around a window reveal. By using a tile that "wraps" the edge, you avoid the sight of the raw ceramic "biscuit," maintaining a continuous flow of colour across your Kitchen Splashback or feature wall.

Heritage Coordination
These pieces are available in the full Artworks palette, ensuring a flawless match with your Victorian Floor Tiles and other decorative elements. For capping the top of a half-tiled wall, we recommend pairing these with the Artworks Albert Moulding or Artworks Victoria Moulding.
