Azure Tide MC52 is a vibrant coastal blue glaze inspired by Mediterranean waters, Atlantic horizons and the shifting colours of shallow seas under changing light. Fresh, luminous and full of movement, it captures the relaxed elegance of handcrafted ceramic surfaces.

Part of The Blues Collection from the collaboration between De Ferranti and AAA - Alvaro Afonso Atelier, Azure Tide MC52 introduces a brighter and more energetic blue to the palette. Its colour moves effortlessly between turquoise, aqua and soft marine blue, creating a surface that feels both uplifting and timeless.

The handmade nature of the tile allows the glaze to develop subtle variations across each piece. Gentle shifts in tone, soft pooling around edges and the natural irregularities of handcrafted production create a surface rich in character and visual depth. These variations ensure that every installation feels unique, with a natural rhythm that cannot be replicated by industrial manufacturing.

Azure Tide MC52 is particularly suited to Bathrooms, Kitchens, Shower Walls, Swimming Pools, Spa Areas, Garden Rooms, Courtyards, Water Features and Hospitality Interiors. Its fresh aquatic character works beautifully alongside natural stone, pale timber, lime plaster and other handcrafted materials.

Used alone, Azure Tide MC52 creates a bright and inviting field of colour that evokes coastal landscapes and open skies. Within The Blues Mix, it acts as one of the livelier tones, bridging the softer Skywash Blue MC39 and Pale Lagoon MC507 with the deeper Sea Patina MC503 and Imperial Navy MC538.

Like all tiles within the Alvaro Afonso Atelier collection, Azure Tide MC52 celebrates the beauty of craftsmanship. Slight variations in glaze, surface and edge detail ensure that every installation possesses warmth, individuality and enduring appeal.

Its appeal lies in its balance. Fresh yet sophisticated, vibrant yet calming, Azure Tide MC52 brings light, movement and a distinctly Mediterranean spirit to contemporary and traditional interiors alike.
