Technical information

Our tiles should be placed in the traditional old way: as close as possible together with a maximal 1 millimeter narrow joint.
Everything is done by hand: from forming and cutting the tile to size, to glazing and painting. The differences in size are about 1 millimeter, so that by placing the tiles, the old structure (without joint) can be achieved. Our Harlinger tiles only differ in age from antique tiles. The production method of the old and our tiles is exactly identical.
Because everything is 100% hand-made every desired colour and/or size is possible, upon request, we can deliver the tiles with crackles, like antique tiles.
Application advice
The tiles can be placed with every normal tile-lute. De small joints can be closed with every normal joint-product. During production every tile is cut with a bevelled edge, so that the lute will stay behind the tiles and only fills the small joint.
