Product Description
Mexican Floral Medallion Relief Tile Pattern blends a calm turquoise field with warm golden yellow framing and bold deep red floral forms for crisp contrast. Light green and pale yellow accents soften transitions, while thick raised outlines keep every color zone clean and defined. The composition is symmetrical and centered, built around a floral cross that radiates evenly from the middle for an orderly, architectural look. Rounded relief petals and stepped framing catch side light and create strong shadow definition without any surface texture. Because the motif is self-contained within each tile, layouts repeat predictably without edge dependency. Order now to add handcrafted relief to your wall.
Tile Pattern Features
The design is organized around a centered floral cross with mirrored petals and a compact rosette core, creating balance and clarity at distance. Raised borders act as natural dividers between color fields, so the geometry stays crisp in busy installations. The pattern completes within a single tile and restarts identically, making grid planning straightforward for backsplashes, niches, and framed wall accents.

Regional Design Influences
This pattern reflects Mexican Talavera inspired relief traditions through bold symmetry, thick raised outlines, and clean color blocking. Spanish Colonial and Mediterranean influence appears in the centered medallion geometry and structured framing, while the turquoise, yellow, and red palette delivers the vibrant architectural character commonly used for hacienda and revival interiors.
Artisan Craftsmanship
Artisans form the relief in clay using a pressed mold so petals, borders, and the central rosette rise with consistent depth. Solid glazes are applied within defined compartments to keep edges crisp and prevent color bleed. Kiln firing sets the smooth glazed finish and strengthens shadow lines along every raised contour.

Order Your Tile
Plan your layout by choosing whether the floral cross becomes a repeated field or a framed focal insert. Because the motif resets per tile, alignment stays predictable across rows, and the stepped border helps maintain a clean visual grid. Pair it with simple grout spacing so the relief shadows remain crisp and the color contrast stays the main feature.

How to Install Relief Tiles
Dry lay a small section to confirm orientation, then set level reference lines to keep rows square. Maintain even joints so the medallion stays centered across the grid, and clean grout from raised edges gently as you go to preserve crisp outlines.
Cleaning Tips
Dust raised areas first, then wash with mild soap and warm water using a soft cloth or sponge. Rinse well and dry to prevent residue from settling along relief edges. Avoid abrasive pads, acidic cleaners, and harsh chemicals that can dull the glaze.
