Each of our patterned Zellige tiles is a work of timeless craftsmanship. Using a rare and ancient technique, our artisans first draw the design onto the glazed surface of the tile, then carefully chisel away the glaze by hand to reveal the terracotta beneath. This reverse process—where the background becomes the clay body itself—creates a rich, textural contrast and a truly one-of-a-kind surface. Every line, curve, and exposed edge tells a story of tradition, skill, and patience.
At Otto Tiles, we fuse this historic method with a bold, contemporary design language. From minimalist geometrics to organic motifs, our hand-chiseled patterns breathe new life into ancient techniques, resulting in tiles that are raw yet refined, rustic yet modern. No two pieces are alike—each one carries the soul of the artisan and the spirit of centuries-old Moroccan tilemaking, reimagined for today’s most inspired interiors.

How It's Made

Crafted by hand and soul, our Otto Mosaic Zellige Tiles are a tribute to ancient Moroccan artistry reimagined with a modern, curated edge. Each tile is hand-chiseled and glazed by master artisans in Fez using traditional methods passed down through generations.

The result? Perfectly imperfect surfaces that shimmer with rich tonal variation, depth, and warmth. Our signature mosaic collections blend timeless geometry with Otto’s bold, contemporary spirit—creating rhythmic compositions that elevate kitchens, bathrooms, fireplaces, and feature walls into spaces of soulful elegance. No two tiles are ever alike—and that’s exactly the magic

Product and Sample Orders

Despite our particular attention to detail and strict packaging standards, we encounter breakage in some deliveries. We recommend ordering at least 15% more tiles than your net area, considering the possible breakages in transportation and the extra tile needs that may occur during installation. Please bear in mind that we do not accept liability for any damage, delay, or reshipment fees incurred in orders you placed without considering these. All sample orders are limited to one per tile. If you exceed the limit, your extra sample orders might be canceled and refunded. Trade account holders, architects, designers, and other professionals who need more than one samples per tile can email us at info@ottotiles.co.uk to request more samples.

As with all of the samples and displays in our showrooms, any individual samples and displays are for guide purposes only and should not be taken as an exact representation of a subsequent order. Each kiln firing process creates a meaningful degree of colour variation in the product. Since they are handmade on demand and there is a time between sampling and purchase we can not guarantee that you will be able to purchase from the same kiln batch as the sample. This means the order colour may vary from that of the sample.

ZELLIGE TILES

Are Zellige tiles suitable for use in pools or water features?

Glazed Zellige tiles may be used in pools or fountains if properly sealed and installed with the right waterproofing techniques. Their high-temperature firing process makes them water-resistant, but project-specific considerations apply. Unglazed Zellige must be sealed thoroughly, and we strongly advise consulting a professional before using any Zellige tile in submerged areas

Can I cut Zellige tiles during installation?

Yes, but we recommend caution. Use a wet saw with a diamond blade for cutting. The glaze on Zellige can chip easily, so cuts should be made slowly and with a steady hand. Always wear gloves and eye protection. Avoid sanding or grinding the glazed surface, as this may release fine particles.

Can Zellige tiles be used around fireplaces?

Yes. Zellige tiles are highly suitable for fireplace surrounds. Their traditional kiln-fired production makes them heat-resistant and safe for use around fireplaces. They add a beautiful, reflective, artisanal finish to these high-heat zones.

Can Zellige tiles be used in wet areas or outdoors?

Yes. Zellige tiles are suitable for wet environments like bathrooms, showers, kitchens, and splashbacks. They can also be used outdoors and around fireplaces. However, if you’re using unglazed Zellige, sealing is required to protect the tiles, no matter where you are using them. Glazed Zellige, on the other hand, is already sealed with a glossy finish and does not require additional protection.

Do Zellige tiles need to be sealed?

If you’re using unglazed Zellige, sealing is necessary both before and after grouting to prevent staining and discolouration. We recommend using a penetrating sealant like Lithofin MN Stain Stop. In traffic areas or showers, resealing once per year is advised. Glazed Zellige tiles do not require sealing, as the glaze provides sufficient protection.

Do Zellige tiles work with underfloor heating?

Yes, Zellige tiles can be used with underfloor heating systems. As with all tile installations, the heating must be turned off at least 12 hours before installation and slowly brought back up to temperature afterward to avoid shock cracking.

How do I clean and maintain Zellige tiles?

For regular cleaning, use mild soap and a pH-neutral cleaner. Avoid acids, bleach, or abrasive products. A soft cloth or microfiber mop is recommended. For glazed tiles, cleaning is very simple. Unglazed tiles should be resealed annually in high-traffic areas. Never use scrubber machines or grinders on the tile surface.

How should Zellige tiles be installed?

Zellige tiles require special care during installation. Because of their handcrafted shape, they are not perfectly uniform. Install them edge-to-edge with no more than a 1 mm gap. A flexible white paste adhesive or high-bond mortar should be applied using the double-spread method (on both wall and tile) with approximately 3 mm adhesive thickness to ensure proper alignment. Tiles should be laid from multiple boxes to blend colour variation evenly.
