This highly dynamic glaze was developed to mimic a classic glaze Edith Heath developed for an installation on the facade of the Norton Simon museum in Pasadena, CA. Depending on the interaction between the layered glazes in the kiln, some tiles will exhibit more Redwood tones and others more Hematite tones giving installations a naturalistic range of tones from red-brown to dark, metallic grey. The surface has a subtle sheen and is highly textured and mottled. Sold Individually. Up to 6 tile samples may be ordered online. Glaze sample out of stock? Don't worry—all of our tile is made to order for every project.

I ordered a sample just to test the color in my kitchen, and now I’m planning an entire backsplash around it. The glaze has that handmade, artisanal depth that ph

Richard ★★★★★

I was nervous about how the glaze would look up close, but the Lava Red-Iron Grey has these beautiful, subtle color variations that shift as you move around the room. The texture feels more like natural stone than a ceramic tile, which really adds depth to the wall.

Scarlett ★★★★★

The color shifts are incredible in natural light—the lava red picks up warm tones while the grey keeps it grounded. The glaze texture has that handmade, historical feel, like it belongs on a museum facade. So glad I ordered extra for the bathroom wall.
