Etruscan

Etruscan is an Italian porcelain tile that expands on the charm of terra cotta tile looks by exploring a range of warm colors: Beige (‘Lazio’), Rose Brown (‘Umbria’), Red (‘Toscana’) and Brown (‘Marche’). Design possibilities are broad, starting with modular pattern field tile formats in 8” x 8”, 8” x 16” and 16” x 16”, enhanced by 9” x 10” monochromatic hexagon field tiles, 8” x 8” colorful decorative tiles and a unique 9” x 10” hexagon tile decorative mix. A 4” mesh-mounted hexagon mosaic tile is available. Etruscan porcelain tile is a beautiful contemporary exploration of a traditional floor tile look. The minimum required joint size for this series is 3/16”. Etruscan Lazio is rated for all residential and commercial applications, while Umbria, Toscana and Marche are rated for all residential and light commercial applications.
