The sheer alchemy of metal is explored in this collection of metal floor and wall tiles using German Silver, brass, copper, rusted iron and stainless steel. Inspired by walkways and walls in old industrial units, metal is re-interpreted as a sophisticated product for contemporary interiors. Supplied bonded to a marine ply base, the tiles can be used for walls or floors, or made in larger sections as wall panels. Some of our metal tiles are handbeaten over a rough stone base to form unique textures. The decorative potential is extraordinary. Different metals can be used in combinations and tiles laid in brick bond, herringbone, parquet de Versailles and other patterns to achieve dramatic effects.
Metal Floor and Wall Tiles as Material
Rather than treating metal as a thin decorative accent, the Alchemy Collection develops it as a complete interior surface. Warm bronze and copper tones can sit beside cooler silver-toned finishes, while patination, hammering and rough-faced textures change the way light moves across the plane. Pattern is equally important: briquettes, planks and parquet-inspired compositions allow metal floor and wall tiles to read as ordered fields rather than isolated pieces.

Embossed & Repoussé Relief Work in Metal focuses on raised and worked metal surfaces.
Metal Surfaces with Texture provides a further reference point for projects centred on relief, patina and directional surface effects.
Planning a Metal Tile Scheme
Metal has a strong relationship with light, adjacent finishes and joint layout, so samples should be reviewed within the intended interior before specification. Consider the scale of the room, tile direction, pattern repeat and the transition to neighbouring materials. Where several metals or finishes are combined, a controlled palette can clarify the design while allowing texture and natural tonal variation to remain visible.
