Iconic Style: Retro Metro Green Park

Capture the timeless atmosphere of London's heritage with the Retro Metro Green Park Tile—a 7.5 x 15cm glazed wall tile that combines a rich, bottle-green hue with a handcrafted crackle finish.

Part of the celebrated Fired Earth collection, this tile pays homage to the distinctive tiling of the London Underground. "Green Park" offers a deep, verdant tone that brings drama and sophistication to any interior. Unlike standard flat subway tiles, the Retro Metro series features a thick, glossy glaze with a deliberate crackle effect (crazing) that catches the light and adds instant antique character. The slightly uneven edges and pooled glaze enhance the rustic, handmade feel, making it a stunning choice for splashbacks, shower walls, and feature fireplace surrounds.

⚠️ Important Installation & Care

  • Sealing is Essential: Because this tile has a genuine crackle glaze, the surface is slightly porous. You must seal the tiles with a high-quality impregnator before grouting to prevent grout pigment from staining the cracks, and again after installation to make them watertight.
  • Grout Colour: We recommend testing a small area if using dark grout, as the pigments can highlight the crazing more intensely than desired.
  • Wet Areas: Suitable for shower walls provided they are correctly sealed and maintained. Not suitable for wet room floors.

Product Frequently Asked Questions

Why does this tile need sealing?

The "crackle" effect is created by the glaze cooling at a different rate to the clay body, causing minute fissures. While beautiful, these tiny cracks can absorb water or grout dye. Sealing creates a barrier that keeps the tile waterproof and stain-resistant.

What colour is Green Park?

It is a rich, deep bottle green. It is darker than emerald but has a glossy translucency that prevents it from looking flat black. It pairs beautifully with gold or brass taps and dark wood accents.

Can I use this in a shower?

Yes, absolutely. As long as the tiles are properly sealed during installation, they are perfectly durable for shower walls and bathroom splashbacks.

What pattern should I lay them in?

The 7.5cm x 15cm size is the classic "subway" ratio.

  • Brick Bond: The most traditional look (like a brick wall).
  • Herringbone: Creates a sophisticated, high-end zig-zag pattern.
  • Vertical Stack: A modern twist that can make ceilings feel higher.
