Turn of the Century Belgian Floor Tiles

$20.00

Authentic floor tiles produced by the Belgian manufacturer Louis Escoyez, founded in 1842 in Tertre, Belgium. This design was in circulation by 1900, and continued to be produced under Escoyez’s mark until the 1920s.

These relief-decorated tiles are still very common today in Belgium, in carriage passages, porches, on open terraces and landings, in station buildings, factory halls – but it is extremely rare to find them in Toronto. They are weather-resistant and wear-resistant, and designed to be anti-slip.

Very limited stock available, please inquire. Price is per tile.

Terra Cotta Quarry Tiles
$25.00

J.C. Edwards Ruabon quarry tiles, manufactured in the early 1900s in Wales then built into the Brantford Waterworks expansions around the 1920s. These beautiful and durable tiles were not only aesthetic but also durable and practical in high traffic areas.

This manufacturer was active from 1903 to 1956 alongside other brick and tilemaking companies that utilized the local rich Etruria Marl clay beginning in the 19th century, giving the Ruabon village the nickname “Terracottapolis”. These highly durable, rich red quarry tiles were used throughout the UK and occasionally exported to Canada for special projects, such as the Brantford Waterworks pump building expansion in 1930, from which we reclaimed this inventory.
