Encaustic tiles use thin layers of coloured clay to make up the design. All Olde English encaustic tiles are fully vitrified and so are very hard wearing, as well as being frost resistant,

Unlike printed tiles, these have a very long life expectancy - there are some fitted externally at the factory that are still in fine condition and they are over 100 years old.

Encaustic tiles can be incorporated in most of the designs in this brochure, either as part of the pattern repeats or as central features or corners.

	The encaustic tile manufacture process uses thin layers of coloured clay and this can result in some shade differences when compared to equivalent colours in the plain tile range.
