Almond (Blanca + Turquoise + Noir) Cement Tile Four turquoise petals crossing into an X, each point and the center pinned by a small black square — on its own the tile reads as a single mark, almost calligraphic. Laid together, the X shapes link diagonally into a continuous diamond lattice, chain-like and unbroken across the floor. Each tile is hand-pressed from pigmented cement by artisans in Fez, following a hydraulic process that has shaped North African floors for well over a century — the pigment set not by fire, but by time and pressure. Sold by the square foot, with each 8" x 8" tile covering just under half a square foot — about two and a quarter tiles per square foot of coverage. The quantity you select at checkout is square footage, and we'll round the tile count up so your installer never comes up short. The pale ground and open lattice keep it light on its feet: bathroom floors, laundry rooms, and hallway runs that want pattern without density. Cement tile carries the fingerprints of its making — soft variation in tone and a slightly porous, hand-finished surface that no machine could replicate. We recommend sealing every tile before installation and again after grouting — a small ritual that protects the pigment for decades to come. For larger runs, order ten percent beyond your total square footage to allow for cuts and pattern matching. $15.75 per square foot. Dimensions: 8" × 8" × 0.375" SKU#: CEM046
