Imprint Delft Corners 13 x 13cm Wall Tile - Classic Delft Finishing

Perfect your Delft-inspired installations with our Imprint Delft Corner tiles, where traditional Dutch corner motifs meet modern printing technology to create consistent, beautiful finishing elements for your tiled surfaces. Each 13 x 13cm corner tile features precisely reproduced classic Delft corner patterns—elegant florals, geometric designs, and traditional scrollwork—printed with exceptional clarity in authentic Delft Blue or sophisticated Charcoal on pristine white backgrounds. These essential finishing tiles provide the professional framework your decorative installations deserve, offering the beauty of traditional Delft corners with the consistency and affordability that modern printing technology allows, ensuring every installation achieves perfectly coordinated, museum-quality presentation.

Why Choose Imprint Delft Corner Tiles?

The Imprint Delft Corner tile brings centuries of Dutch ceramic tradition into contemporary homes through advanced printing technology that captures every detail of classic corner designs with remarkable precision. Unlike variable hand-painted tiles, our imprint process ensures consistent pattern reproduction across every tile, making it easier to achieve symmetrical, balanced installations where matching corners create harmonious frames. These tiles solve the perpetual challenge of finishing tile edges elegantly, transforming potential weak points into decorative features that enhance rather than compromise your overall design.

What distinguishes our Imprint corners is the quality of reproduction that honours Delft tradition while embracing modern advantages. High-definition printing captures the delicate brushstroke appearance of traditional designs—you'll see the subtle variations that suggest hand-painting while enjoying the practical benefits of consistent reproduction. The 13 x 13cm format coordinates perfectly with both traditional and contemporary tile collections, while the corner-specific designs ensure proper pattern orientation at every edge. Each design has been carefully selected from historical Delft patterns, featuring motifs that work universally with various central designs.

The imprint technology allows us to offer authentic Delft corner designs at accessible price points without compromising visual quality. Whether framing hand-painted centrepieces, defining plain tile fields, or creating decorative borders, these corners provide the architectural punctuation that transforms basic tile installation into composed design statements. The consistent quality means you can order exact quantities with confidence, knowing every corner will match perfectly.

Perfect Applications for Imprint Delft Corners

Bathroom Frame Creation

Transform bathroom installations from simple tiled areas into properly framed features using Imprint corners for consistent, professional finishing. Create defined panels around mirrors where matching corners ensure symmetrical presentation. Frame shower niches transforming functional recesses into decorative focal points. In shower enclosures, corners provide elegant edge solutions while maintaining complete water resistance. The consistent pattern printing means corners align perfectly, crucial for bathroom installations where symmetry matters. The glazed surface handles humidity without pattern degradation.

Kitchen Splashback Definition

Design sophisticated kitchen splashbacks where Imprint corners create professional borders around functional areas. Use corners to define cooking zones behind hobs, creating visual panels that organize wall space. Frame window splashbacks where corners solve tile-to-frame transitions elegantly. The consistent printing ensures all corners match—important in kitchens where good lighting reveals any variations. Create multiple framed panels along long splashbacks, using corners to provide rhythm and structure. Perfect with metro tiles for mixed traditional-contemporary installations.

Creating Tile Panels Throughout Homes

Use Imprint corners to create framed tile panels in any room, not just wet areas. Living rooms benefit from properly framed ceramic art installations. Hallways gain interest from bordered tile panels at strategic points. Bedrooms can feature framed tile headboard panels. The consistent corner patterns ensure professional appearance regardless of location. This approach allows decorative tile use beyond traditional bathroom/kitchen limitations.

The imprint process ensures every corner in a 50-room hotel matches perfectly. Chain restaurants achieve brand consistency across locations. Retail spaces maintain uniform appearance throughout. The reliable reproduction eliminates concerns about batch variation. Professional specifiers appreciate the predictability for large projects. Available in quantities required for commercial scale.

Heritage & Restoration Projects

Perfect for heritage properties requiring Delft-style corners in quantity for restoration work. The imprint process allows faithful reproduction of historical patterns without the cost of hand-painting. Multiple rooms can be fitted with matching corners, maintaining period character throughout properties. Museums and historical buildings use imprint corners where authentic appearance matters but hand-painted isn't viable. The designs reference genuine historical patterns, ensuring appropriateness for conservation work.

Mixed Installation Flexibility

Combine Imprint corners with various tile types—they're not limited to Delft centres. Frame plain tiles with decorative corners for subtle elegance. Mix with modern tiles adding traditional accent to contemporary installations. Use with natural stone where corners provide pattern contrast to organic textures.

Installation & Maintenance

Installation Advantages

Imprint corners offer significant installation benefits through their consistency. Every corner matches perfectly, eliminating time spent selecting and matching hand-painted variations. Pattern alignment is predictable—installers can work confidently knowing corners will meet expectations. The consistent thickness ensures level installation without adjustment. Precise printing means pattern elements align correctly at joints. Standard tile installation techniques apply without special considerations. DIY-friendly for confident home installers.

Professional Edge Solutions

Corner tiles eliminate multiple edge-finishing challenges:

• No need for trim strips that interrupt design flow
• Avoid raw tile edges that look unfinished
• Eliminate metal corners that clash with ceramic
• Prevent grout-only edges that appear incomplete
• Create intentional boundaries rather than arbitrary stops

Pattern Positioning Principles

Position corners considering pattern flow and sight lines. External corners (projecting edges) should display patterns prominently. Internal corners require paired tiles meeting at 90 degrees. For frames, ensure corner patterns radiate correctly—flowers opening outward, scrolls flowing appropriately. In continuous borders, maintain regular corner spacing for rhythm. Consider viewing angles—position decorative elements where they'll be appreciated.

Quantity Calculation

Accurate quantity calculation is straightforward with consistent Imprint tiles:

• Single frames: 4 corners per panel
• Continuous borders: Measure linear metres, place corners every 60-90cm
• Multiple panels: 4 corners × number of panels
• Room dados: Perimeter measurement ÷ corner spacing
• Always order 10% extra for cuts and future repairs

Easy Maintenance

The glazed surface protects printed patterns while allowing simple cleaning. Consistent printing means uniform cleaning response—no variations in pattern density affecting maintenance. Regular cleaning with standard tile cleaners maintains appearance. The sealed surface resists moisture at vulnerable corner positions. pH-neutral cleaners preserve both glaze and printed design. No special corner-specific maintenance required.

• White: Traditional choice for classic Delft appearance
