A Vintage Bloom: Naples Viola 20 x 20cm

A floral cement-effect patterned ceramic, inspired by the reclaimed encaustic floors of old Naples, from Hyperion Tiles, your official Fired Earth stockist.

Naples Viola sets a central floral motif within a softly geometric frame, its beige, tan and muted grey tones lending the warmth of a well-loved vintage floor. The effect is romantic yet grounded, equally at home in a period hallway or a contemporary kitchen seeking a little soul.

Printed on a hard-wearing glazed ceramic body in a versatile 20 x 20cm square, the pattern repeats seamlessly for a continuous decorative floor or a distinctive feature wall. As a glazed tile it needs no sealing and cleans with a simple wipe.

Installation & care

Installation & care

  • Adhesive & Grout: Fix with a quality flexible tile adhesive. A soft grey or taupe grout flatters the faded palette; avoid stark white.
  • Layout Options: Shuffle tiles from several boxes as you lay to distribute the pattern evenly, working to a neat 3mm joint.
  • Cleaning: Sweep and mop with warm water and a mild cleaner. The glazed surface needs no sealing.
Samples

Tone, glaze and veining all read differently in your own light. Cut samples are free — sample postage is £4.99 (£8 for Original Style) and we refund it on tile orders over £50 with the code we email you. Our family-run team is happy to check quantities and finishes with you on 01344 620211.

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

Unused, complete orders can be returned within 14 days of delivery; as tiles are picked and packed to your quantity, a restocking fee of 20–30% applies depending on the range. Fired Earth ranges are returned through Fired Earth’s own returns process, and special-order items are non-returnable unless damaged on delivery or faulty. Ordering a free sample first is the simplest way to avoid a return.

Product Frequently Asked Questions

How do I calculate how many Fired Earth Naples Viola tiles I need?

Because each Naples Viola tile is a 20x20cm square, you will need exactly 25 tiles to cover one square metre. Simply calculate your total required square meterage (adding an additional 10% for cuts and natural wastage), and multiply by 25 to find out how many tiles you need to order.

What are patterned encaustic effect porcelain tiles used for?

These beautifully crafted porcelain tiles are designed to emulate the traditional charm of classic encaustic cement tiles. With their intricate Mediterranean-inspired pattern, they are incredibly popular for creating breathtaking statement floors in hallways and bathrooms, or for designing eye-catching, decorative splashbacks in contemporary and traditional kitchens alike.

Are these tiles suitable for bathrooms and showers?

Yes. These premium porcelain tiles are exceptionally hardwearing and fully suitable for internal wet and dry areas. This includes shower enclosures, wet room floors, and over underfloor heating systems. They offer the stunning look of traditional patterned tiles with the enhanced durability and water resistance of modern porcelain.

Do I need to seal Fired Earth Naples tiles before grouting?

No. Unlike traditional cement encaustic tiles, the high-quality glazed surface on these porcelain tiles does not require any sealing prior to grouting or during everyday use. The surface is highly resilient and naturally protects against moisture and stains. For everyday maintenance, simply wipe them clean with warm water and a non-abrasive cloth.
