Product story

A Deep Teal Dado Rail: Empress Dado Tourmaline Ceramic Border Tile

Empress Dado Tourmaline, a moulded deep tourmaline teal (a rich blue-green) ceramic dado rail trim from Hyperion Tiles, your official Fired Earth stockist.

The Empress Dado Tourmaline traces the classic dado line in a deep, jewel-like tourmaline teal — a slim, moulded border rail that brings depth and rhythm to a Beatrice wall. It is a trim piece, sold individually.

Made in glazed and decorated ceramic with a genuine crackle glaze, its 3.5 x 15.2cm profile has a softly crazed, characterful surface. Set it above the Beatrice Tourmaline field tiles and matching base to complete an authentically Empress scheme.

Delivery

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 Empress Dado Tourmaline a trim piece?

Yes. It is a moulded dado rail border designed to frame and complete an Empress field-tile scheme, and is sold individually rather than by the square metre.

What colour is the Empress Dado Tourmaline?

It is finished in deep tourmaline teal, a rich blue-green glaze from the Empress palette that coordinates with the matching Empress field and trim pieces.

Can these tiles be used on floors or outside?

No. Empress is a glazed relief ceramic range intended for interior walls only — ideal for bathrooms, kitchens and fireplace surrounds, but not for floors or external use.

Do Empress tiles need sealing?

Yes. The characterful crackle glaze should be sealed before grouting to protect the crazed surface and keep it looking its best for years to come.

Installation & Care Tips

Installation & care

  • Sealing: The crackle glaze is porous — seal the tiles before grouting, and again after, to protect the crazed surface from staining.
  • Adhesive & Grout: Fix to a sound, dry interior wall with a quality flexible adhesive and grout in a soft, tonal shade. Keep a 3mm joint to allow for the natural size tolerance.
  • Cleaning: Wipe with a mild, pH-neutral cleaner; avoid harsh abrasives and acidic products that can dull the glaze. For interior walls only — not suitable for floors or external use.
