Lantern (Cornflower + Sunflower) Cement Tile A gold trellis of arches and quatrefoils laid over cobalt blue, each ogee shaped like a hanging lamp with a small cross set at its center — the silhouette that lines every lantern stall in the medina. The trellis runs unbroken from tile to tile: no orientation to puzzle over, no corners to match, just one continuous lattice that spreads across a wall or floor like patterned silk. 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 all-over repeat makes it forgiving in awkward rooms and unafraid of scale: powder rooms, courtyard floors, pool surrounds, and feature walls that want saturated color with no apology. 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#: CEM020
