Product Description
The Pamplona Blue Relief Tile for Rustic Decor blends traditional craftsmanship with rich visual texture. Its floral medallion is hand-formed using the cuerda seca technique, showcasing alternating denim blue and reddish-brown petals on a terracotta ochre base. This Mexican high-relief tile brings geometric order and artisanal warmth to rustic, colonial, or hacienda-style environments. Crafted in Dolores Hidalgo, the tile offers a bold decorative focal point for historic homes or Mediterranean-style interiors.
This handcrafted Pamplona floral relief tile features warm, earthen tones and raised detailing outlined in black cuerda seca lines. Its symmetrical design makes it ideal for vertical installations in rustic staircases, courtyard walls, or Spanish-style kitchen backsplashes.
