Rosette tile Sainte Victoire

Poolside settings are demanding, which is why Carocim systematically applies an anti-UV treatment to its outdoor cement tiles: Carreau Rosace Sainte Victoire is therefore built for full sun, its red and cream pigments shielded from fading despite the water's glare. Add a water- and oil-repellent sealer suited to pool surrounds, and the curved-petal rosace will keep its elegance.

No, not fundamentally: Carocim still makes Carreau Rosace Sainte Victoire the historic way, hand-pouring pigmented cement into a brass divider, then compacting each cement tile under a hydraulic press before a slow cure. No firing, no glazing — the same essential gestures as the 19th-century originals. Only the quality controls and pigment formulations have been refined over time.

Curved petals and strong contrast make this cement tile a natural Art Deco ally: the red and cream rosace of Carreau Rosace Sainte Victoire echoes the period's love of stylised florals and bold geometry. Pair it with brass, dark wood and lacquered surfaces for a convincing scheme. Carocim's Sim.PL drawing is clean enough to feel curated, never costume-like.

Eight curved petals, one square: the motif of Carreau Rosace Sainte Victoire sits exactly where nature meets geometry. Carocim drew a stylised flower whose organic curves are disciplined into a precise rosace, true to the Sim.PL collection's spirit. The result reads botanical from afar and mathematical up close — a balance that gives this cement tile its timeless appeal.

When a feature rug of patterned tiles meets the rest of the floor, quiet neighbours work best: sand, cream, greige or pale terracotta pick up the background of Carreau Rosace Sainte Victoire and let its red rosace sing. Carocim's plain cement tiles in matching cream are the seamless option; light oak parquet also makes a warm, natural transition.
