Characteristics
Installation: It is imperative that all tiles, right out of the box, are laid out first, blended to the owners taste. Given the very traditional methods of production methods (hand forming, hand cutting, glazing, firing and also the impurities found in raw material) then anticipate that each tile will always have minor "defects", which, taken in isolation, may seem unacceptable but contribute to the subtle overall appearance. This appearance could be crazing, chipping and pitting. There is no square calibration since the tiles are hand-cut. There is no reason to sort the zelliges so as only to use the "perfect tiles". Chips or Breakages of more than 1/2 square inch needs to be tolerated. Based on your tolerance level, order 15-20% extra or more to point out to your contractor your selection. We do not support this recommendation as we are envying the product in its pure state, however mentioning it for those who may be concerned with the imperfection.
Butt joint is recommended, however tiles will not line up perfectly, in this case it is important to use "Wedges" spacers to leave a bit of a gap less than 1/16". We do not recommend larger grout joints for aesthetic. Use a high-bond property thinset mortar white in color. The substrate must be flat and clean. The grout color must match the glaze. We recommend Non-sanded grout. Zellige can be installed in wet areas, provided that: Any waterproofing on substrate should be done prior with great detail. Include any additives to water proof the grout for wet area usage. Use an impregnating type sealer to seal and waterproof the natural impurities on the glazed surface. Allow ventilation in the wet area in between each usage. Repeat the impregnating sealer sealing once a year due to the constant exposure to water and more often so in a steam shower environment.
Applications: Interior walls, exterior walls, residential floors, wet areas.
