The design of the Maiolica series is based on production technique for which it is named. The origin of the Maiolica process dates back to the 9th century in the Middle East and it was later introduced into Italy and Spain in the 13th century. The process involves a multiple firings of the tiles and the application of a fast drying glaze and paint. The result is deep, brilliant colours with a translucent appearance. The Maiolica series of 4" x 10" ceramic tiles captures the look of this timeless process in five colours: Aqua; Biscuit; Tender Grey and White.
