These bright coloured tiles are the full colour siblings of the famous patterned Izik tiles, “Chini”, the name given to a special quality of ceramic tiles and pottery produced in İznik (historic Nicaea) during the 15th and 16th centuries.

These tiles contain 85% quartz, making these tiles extremely hard and durable. The tiles are available in various sizes and can be used for interior and exterior purposes. Given that they are comprised of 85% of quartz stone, and the complexity regarding the production process, Iznik tiles resist “time decay”. Their durability may last for even 500 years.

Furthermore, in line with their traditional production technique, Iznik tiles are handmade.
