Historic Heritage: English Delft Blue Gloss Base Tile

Introduce a sense of historic English charm to your interior with the English Delft Blue Gloss Base Tile from Fired Earth.

Hand-decorated in England, these beautiful glazed wall tiles are inspired by traditional 16th-century Delftware. Drawing on extensive archival research, Fired Earth has recreated elusive early designs in a characteristic, crisp blue and white colour palette. The smooth Gloss finish offers a light-reflecting, easy-to-clean surface, while the slight variations in colour and detail from the hand-painting process ensure every tile carries its own unique, authentic character.

Measuring 130mm x 130mm with a 10mm thickness, these premium ceramic tiles are specifically engineered for internal wall applications. Their classic square format makes them perfect for creating timeless splashbacks in country kitchens, traditional shower walls, or elegant fireplace surrounds.

⚠ Installation & Care Tips

  • Adhesive: Use a high-quality flexible tile adhesive suitable for glazed ceramic wall tiles.
  • Grout Joint: A small 2mm grout joint is recommended to allow the hand-painted edges to sit harmoniously together without interrupting the classic aesthetic.
  • Sealing & Cleaning: As a glazed tile, sealing is not necessary. Maintain the finish easily with warm water and a soft cloth; avoid abrasive pads that could scratch the gloss surface.

Product Frequently Asked Questions

How many tiles do I need?

The English Delft Base tiles are sold individually, requiring 59 tiles to cover 1m². To ensure you have enough for cuts, we recommend ordering an additional 10% on top of your room measurements.

Can this tile be used as a kitchen splashback or in a shower?

Yes. These glazed wall tiles are highly suited for use on bathroom walls, shower enclosures, and as beautiful kitchen splashbacks. They are also suitable for use around hearths and fireplaces (provided they are at least 30cm from the direct heat source).

Do these tiles need to be sealed?

No. The high-quality gloss glaze provides a permanent, non-porous barrier against moisture and staining, meaning tile sealing is not necessary for this product.
