Amano Handpainted Tiles
Each piece in the Amano collection is 100% handmade and hand painted by skilled artisans using traditional and ancient techniques, drawing inspiration from Mediterranean architectural finishes to produce tiles that function as decorative objects as much as building materials.
The Amano range draws on a long tradition of decorative tilework, with references to style like handpainted Delft tiles woven into the collection’s design language. Where Delft tiles are characterised by their fine brushwork and narrative detail, Amano brings that same quality into a broader colour palette and wider range of applications.
Amano tiles are well suited to decorative accents throughout the home, including counters, vanities, window surrounds, and fireplaces, where the handpainted detail can be appreciated as part of the overall design.
Our Amano borders work well as framing elements within a larger tile scheme, adding structure and definition to walls, mirror surrounds, and shower recesses. For those working with our natural stone tiles or limestone flooring tiles, an Amano border is a straightforward way to introduce pattern and colour into an otherwise understated palette.
For a cohesive scheme, our handmade Moroccan Zellige tiles share Amano’s artisanal characteristics, while sitting in a different design tradition entirely. Our cream Zellige tile ranges pair particularly well with the softer tones in the Amano collection, and our Moroccan Zellige basics offer a clean, simple counterpoint to Amano’s more decorative finish.
