Family-run, independent online tiles specialist Hyperion Tiles invites you to peruse their latest collections of encaustic tiles for eye-catching floor and wall ideas for the home. Ideal for indoors and out, these striking tiles are designed by Bert & May, who are renowned for producing handmade artisan tiles in curated colours.
Our director Richard Skeoch explains: “Encaustic, or cement, tiles are becoming increasingly popular for those who are looking for versatile tiles with the wow factor. The term, encaustic, refers to the firing process that burns the glazed pattern onto the tile surface or cement tiles, which have been inlaid with pigment to create patterns and colours.
“Our Bert & May tiles are handcrafted, using traditional techniques and natural colours. Designed in the UK, they are hand-poured by a family of fourth-generation, artisan tile-makers in Spain and crafted with crushed marble to create extra strength and a beautiful, raw finish. Options include plain designs however patterned styles can feature from two to six different colours.”

R: The clever design tessellations of our Bert & May Tilt Marigold Tile (£156 per sq m) and showcased here in Pearl on the floor are endlessly versatile, work especially well in retro/rustic settings, and are suitable for both interior and exterior walls and floors
