Hexagon Original Style Winchester Tiles

Authentic English Craftsmanship

The Original Style Winchester collection is specifically designed for those who value the artistry of traditional manufacturing. Hand-crafted in Devon by a team of highly skilled artists and crafts people, these tiles are built upon the foundation of 'bisques'—blank canvases of moulded clay. It is the meticulous attention to detail during the firing and glazing processes that gives the Winchester range its soul, ensuring every single tile possesses its own unique character and depth of colour.

A Masterclass in Glazing

One of the defining features of the Winchester collection is its unparalleled mastery of glazes. The range offers everything from the intense, mouth-watering gloss of the 'Cosmopolitan' series to the softly aged, vintage 'variable crazing' found in the 'Arcadian' crackle glazes. For those seeking something truly unique, the 'Metropolitan' range offers a delicate pearl-like lustre, while the 'Origin' bricks provide a beautiful, muted milky finish. This extraordinary variety allows you to achieve the exact textural aesthetic your space demands.

Undulating Rustic Character

While offering the reliability and durability required for modern living, the vast majority of the Winchester collection brilliantly captures the charming imperfections of historic handmade ceramics. You will notice deliberately undulating surface contours and softly rippled, rustic edges that bounce light around the room in a wonderfully organic way. This highly tactile finish removes the harsh, clinical lines of standard machine-made tiles, ensuring your finished splashbacks and feature walls feel invitingly bespoke and deeply rooted in heritage.

Installation & Care Tips

To achieve the best possible finish with your hand-crafted tiles, we strongly recommend unpacking and blending tiles from multiple boxes prior to fixing. This ensures the beautiful natural variations in the glaze are evenly distributed across your layout. If you have selected a Crackle Glaze tile (such as those in the Arcadian range), you must seal them with a high-quality crackle glaze impregnator before fixing and again before grouting to protect the delicate crazing. For ongoing maintenance of all Winchester tiles, simply wipe the surface down regularly with a soft cloth and a mild, pH-neutral cleaner. Avoid abrasive scouring pads to protect the beautiful glazes.
