Sunlit Mexican Warmth: Acapulco Yellow City 10 x 10cm

a warm, sunlit yellow hand-glazed 10 x 10cm ceramic that captures the colour of a Mexican summer — Acapulco Yellow City from Hyperion Tiles, your official Fired Earth stockist.

Acapulco Yellow City brings an instant lift of golden warmth to a wall. Its glowing yellow glaze, hand-applied to a terracotta body, carries the gentle tonal shifts and soft edges of a genuinely hand-made tile — no two are ever quite identical, and that is precisely its charm.

Set it as a full field for a sun-drenched splashback, or use it to frame and border the patterned decors elsewhere in the Acapulco range. On its warm terracotta base and glazed surface, it wipes clean in a moment and needs no sealing across the face.

In-stock orders are dispatched within 3–5 working days, with express options available. Special-order and made-to-order ranges carry their own lead time, shown on the product page and confirmed when you order. Pallet, slab, large-format and bathware orders travel on a specialist off-load service — we confirm the timescale and book a date that suits you before dispatch.

Delivery is calculated at checkout from your order and postcode (we do not offer showroom collection) and UK delivery is free on orders over £1,000 on most ranges. For pallet deliveries please tell us about access issues in advance — low trees or bridges, narrow roads or gateways, gravel drives, or no turning or unloading space — as a re-delivery charge may apply if we cannot complete delivery.

When your order arrives

Please check your delivery as soon as it arrives. Once goods are unloaded they become the responsibility of the receiver, so if anything isn’t right, contact us within three working days and we’ll put it right quickly.

Returns

To request a return, contact Hyperion within 14 days of delivery. For eligible online consumer cancellations, you have a further 14 days after telling us to send the goods back. Contact us for the correct return address; your statutory cancellation does not depend on our authorisation.

Additional supplier returns have their own eligibility rules, charges and exclusions. These do not override statutory cancellation rights or rights for faulty goods. See our refund policy and supplier return guidance before arranging a return.

Product Frequently Asked Questions

Is the yellow colour uniform across all tiles?

No. Because each tile is hand-painted, there will be subtle variations in the intensity and depth of the yellow. This tonal movement is a desired feature of the Acapulco range, giving the wall a more organic, handcrafted feel compared to machine-printed tiles.

Can these be used as a plain tile with the patterned Acapulco designs?

Yes! Yellow City is designed to be the perfect companion to the patterned tiles in the collection. It is often used to frame a central motif or to provide "breathing space" within a multi-patterned patchwork.

How do I maintain the bright yellow gloss finish?

The glaze is very hard-wearing. For daily maintenance, simply use warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid acidic or abrasive cleaners that could eventually dull the high-gloss shine.

Can I use these in a shower?

Yes. These are glazed ceramic tiles suitable for shower walls. We recommend using a waterproof adhesive and grout system, and ensuring the background substrate is properly tanked.

Installation & Care Tips

Installation & care

  • Adhesive & Grout: Fix with a quality flexible adhesive over a sound, level background and choose a grout tone that flatters the decor — a soft neutral lets the pattern lead.
  • Layout Options: As a hand-made tile, shade and size vary from piece to piece. Shuffle tiles from several boxes and dry-lay a section first to enjoy the natural variation across the wall.
  • Cleaning: The glazed face needs no sealing — simply wipe with a mild cleaner. On a hearth, keep the tile at least 30cm from the direct heat source.
