Production & Craftsmanship

Each tile is crafted using the cuerda seca technique, where black raised lines separate hand-applied color glazes. This process allows for sharp boundaries and dimensional texture. After glazing, tiles are fired at high temperatures to achieve a durable, matte-meets-gloss finish that highlights the visual rhythm of the relief pattern.

Artisan Testimony

"We paint each stroke with care and pride. The blue and gold design reminds me of the old churches in Guanajuato. It’s about more than decoration—it's legacy." – Mateo R., Relief Tile Artisan
