White Patterned Zellige

Each of our patterned Zellige tiles is a work of timeless craftsmanship. Using a rare and ancient technique, our artisans first draw the design onto the glazed surface of the tile, then carefully chisel away the glaze by hand to reveal the terracotta beneath. This reverse process—where the background becomes the clay body itself—creates a rich, textural contrast and a truly one-of-a-kind surface. Every line, curve, and exposed edge tells a story of tradition, skill, and patience.

At Otto Tiles, we fuse this historic method with a bold, contemporary design language. From minimalist geometrics to organic motifs, our hand-chiseled patterns breathe new life into ancient techniques, resulting in tiles that are raw yet refined, rustic yet modern. No two pieces are alike—each one carries the soul of the artisan and the spirit of centuries-old Moroccan tilemaking, reimagined for today’s most inspired interiors.

Delivery

Delivery Terms & Conditions

1. Delivery Inspection

Please ensure that all products are carefully checked at the time of delivery. Any breakages or damages must be clearly stated on the delivery note. This is essential, as all deliveries are insured against damage, and doing so allows for a swift response from our customer service team.

Important:

If you sign for a delivery without noting any damage, we reserve the right to refuse replacements or refunds for any broken items.

In case of damage:

Inspect the delivery thoroughly.
If any items are damaged, mark the delivery note as “damaged” and sign it.
If you have not signed the delivery not “damaged”, we reserve the right to refuse any replacements.
Inform us immediately of any damage.
We may request written confirmation of the issue within 48 hours of delivery.
Take digital photos of the damaged items.
These images are necessary for processing insurance claims and should be sent to us as soon as possible.

If someone else is receiving the delivery on your behalf, they must be fully informed of these conditions.

2. Delivery Company & Site Access
All deliveries are subcontracted to national pallet networks, which operate through central hubs and independent local depots across the country. As a result, Otto Tiles cannot guarantee delivery on a specific date, and cannot be held responsible for late deliveries or any delays or costs resulting from them.
At the time of your order, please inform us of any site restrictions that could affect delivery. Our delivery vehicles are typically large, and any obstructions (e.g., parked cars, narrow roads) should be cleared in advance.
You must notify us of any potential issues, including:

Parking restrictions
Congestion charges
Narrow lanes or roads
Slopes or steep driveways
Height restrictions
Weak or weight-limited bridges

You may be charged for redelivery if we are not informed of these in advance.

We strongly recommend that you do not schedule trades people for installation on the delivery day, as Otto Tiles will not be liable for any costs arising from delayed delivery.

3. Curbside Delivery

Please note that delivery drivers are not permitted to move products inside your property or site. All deliveries are curbside only and will be off-loaded at the nearest suitable point to your address, which may be the roadside.
For orders over 150 sq ft, please be aware that larger pallets and heavier loads may be involved.

Anything you can do to help facilitate a smoother drop-off closer to your property is appreciated.

You (or someone on your behalf) must be present to receive the delivery.
If no one is available, the delivery will not be off-loaded, and additional redelivery charges will apply.

Please ensure all goods are checked upon delivery and that the delivery note is signed appropriately.

We will not accept claims if the delivery note is signed “unchecked.”

4. Pallets & Crates

Your order will typically arrive on pallets or in crates, which are considered part of your delivery.
Otto Tiles is not responsible for removing pallets or crates from your site, unless specifically agreed beforehand.

How It's Made

Crafted by hand and soul, our Otto Mosaic Zellige Tiles are a tribute to ancient Moroccan artistry reimagined with a modern, curated edge. Each tile is hand-chiseled and glazed by master artisans in Fez using traditional methods passed down through generations.

The result? Perfectly imperfect surfaces that shimmer with rich tonal variation, depth, and warmth. Our signature mosaic collections blend timeless geometry with Otto’s bold, contemporary spirit—creating rhythmic compositions that elevate kitchens, bathrooms, fireplaces, and feature walls into spaces of soulful elegance. No two tiles are ever alike—and that’s exactly the magic

Product and Sample Orders

Despite our close attention to detail and strict packaging standards, breakages can occasionally occur during delivery. For this reason, we strongly recommend ordering at least 15% more tiles than your net area to allow for possible transit damage and any additional cuts required during installation.

Please note that we do not accept liability for damage, delays, or reshipment fees for orders placed without this recommended buffer. All sample orders are limited to four samples per tile. Orders exceeding this limit may be canceled and refunded.

Trade account holders, architects, designers, and other industry professionals are welcome to request up to 5 free samples by emailing us at info@ottotiles.com

Please note that all samples and showroom displays are intended as a general guide only and should not be considered an exact match to your final order. Due to the nature of our handmade, kiln-fired production process, significant color variation can
occur from batch to batch.

Because tiles are handmade to order, and there is typically a time gap between
sampling and purchase, we cannot guarantee that your final order will be from the same kiln batch as your sample. As a result, the color of the tiles you receive may vary from that of the sample.

ZELLIGE TILES

Are Zellige tiles suitable for use in pools or fountains?

Yes—with conditions. Glazed Zellige tiles can be used in pools and fountains, provided they are sealed properly and installed with care by a tile professional experienced in submerged applications. Unglazed Zellige tiles are not recommended for fully submerged use due to their porosity, even when sealed. Please consult your architect or contractor for project-specific recommendations.

Can I use Zellige tiles around a fireplace?

Yes. Zellige tiles are perfectly safe for use around fireplace surrounds. Their kiln-fired production makes them resistant to heat, and they provide a beautiful, handmade finish in high-temperature areas. However, like all decorative tiles, they should not be used inside the firebox, where direct flame may lead to cracking.

How should I install Zellige tiles?

Zellige tiles are surprisingly easy to install.Since they are handmade and naturally irregular in shape, they don’t require strict spacing or perfect alignment, giving you more flexibility during installation and a beautifully organic finish.
Zellige tiles should be installed as closely together as possible, ideally with no visible joint. Lay them edge-to-edge and expect slight variation in height and size. Use tiles from different boxes to balance tone and variation. Due to the irregular shape of Zellige tiles, they are best installed by a professional with experience in hand-cut Moroccan tilework. Never use a rubber mallet to set tiles; it may cause cracks.

How do I clean and maintain Zellige tiles?

Use a mild, pH-neutral cleaner and soft cloth or mop. Avoid bleach, vinegar, or acidic cleaners, especially on unglazed surfaces. For showers, squeegee after each use to prevent limescale buildup. Do not use abrasive pads, floor scrubbers, or rotary machines, which can damage the surface. Reseal unglazed tiles annually in high-traffic or wet areas.

Do Zellige tiles need to be sealed?

Unglazed Zellige tiles must be sealed both before and after grouting to protect them from staining and moisture absorption. Use a high-quality penetrating sealant such as Miracle 511 Porous Plus. In high-moisture environments like showers, reseal annually.

Glazed Zellige tiles do not require sealing, as the glaze provides a protective barrier.

Where can I use Zellige tiles?

Zellige tiles are incredibly versatile and suitable for a wide variety of applications, including:

Walls and floors

Wet areas like bathrooms and showers

Kitchen backsplashes

Fireplace surrounds

Indoor and outdoor spaces

Pools and water features (see more below)

Zellige tiles are also safe to use over underfloor heating, provided proper installation guidelines are followed.

Are Zellige tiles safe and non-toxic?

Yes, Zellige tiles are safe for home use. However, because they are made using traditional glazes, some may contain trace amounts of lead. This is not hazardous under normal use. Avoid cutting glazed surfaces with rotary saws or sanders. If cutting is required, do so outdoors or in a well-ventilated area while using appropriate protective gear.

Can I use Zellige tiles with underfloor heating?

Yes. Zellige tiles are compatible with heated floors. Make sure to turn off the heating system at least 12 hours before installation, and gradually return it to operating temperature once the tile and grout have fully cured.

What adhesive and grout should I use for Zellige tiles?

Use a flexible white paste adhesive or high-bond mortar applied using the double-spread method—on both the tile and the surface. The adhesive should be about 1/8" (3mm) thick to help compensate for tile irregularities.

For grout, use a very runny, liquid grout like Mapei Ultracolor Plus FA. Since Zellige tiles are laid edge-to-edge, grout gaps are minimal, no more than 1/32" (1 mm). Spread grout diagonally and clean with a damp sponge after 20–30 minutes. Always test grout on a small area first, especially with unglazed tiles.
