clé’s 17th century: maiolica de delft is our love letter to the classic blue and white tile that swept the globe centuries ago–and hasn’t fallen out of style since then. our collection of hand painted glazed terracotta tile from Italy brings the richness of this tradition to life in three series that let you dial in the design from delicate to maximalist.
le sol
le sol brings a sophisticated bohemian vibe to clé’s terracotta collection, evoking sunbaked mediterranean terraces and languid afternoons.
belgian reproduction
a restored form of european terracotta making these tiles makes these tiles perfect for grounding projects with an austerity as striking as an antique belgian surface.
architect's palette
architect's palette is an austere collection of elongated planks of italian terracotta. in four neutral matte colors, the collection is simultaneously rustic and refined in its simplicity.
eastern elements
clé’s eastern elements collection features three unique glazes on the white spectrum: mochi, rice paper and robin’s egg and ranges from a creamier glaze with subtle variations in surface to one with pinkish-blue hues with plenty of variation and iron spots for a character-ful handcrafted look.
evoking sun-drenched tuscan farmhouses casale rustico from fornace brioni + clé is the quintessence of soul with its rippled surface and warm-yet-fresh white glaze.
from the fornace brioni + clé collaboration comes this everyday rustic terracotta to suit all design styles and aesthetics, from the modern to the traditional, for use indoors and out.
fornace brioni + cristina celestino: terracotta
exclusive to clé in the united states, the fornace brioni + cristina celestino collection is where modern italian design meets italian heritage craftsmanship. third generation terracotta makers fornace brioni and leading architect and designer cristina celestino have created a glazed ceramic collection that marries art and function, enlivened by celestino's signature wit and flair.
antique terracotta
antique terracotta tiles are what they say they are: sourced from european buildings of a certain vintage (100 or so years old). gracious, earthy, and truly timeless, this limited collection of authentic terracotta tile sits as comfortably in modern spaces as they did in their original settings.
eastern earthenware
a very special collection of limited tile, eastern earthenware is a wood-fired terracotta, inspired by the japanese firing process called raku. the resulting tile is rustic, earthy, and unfiltered, with a wildly varied glaze surface and finish that is more alchemy-meets-art than tile. every batch is unique and can't ever be replicated...
Villa Classica
artisan-made but part of our approachable, affordable classics curation. a simple, easy white tile that’s low on variation and fuss and high on sunny, laid-back vibes. for when you’re looking for something that’s just a little less basic than subway.
