Toumèto Pink Limestone Tile

Steady hands and a trained eye come first: the Carocim artisan pours pink, black, yellow and white pigments into the fine compartments of a divider mould, doses each colour evenly, presses the cement tile and judges its curing. Years of repetition build the precision that keeps Margaux Keller's quarter-rosette crisp, tile after tile.

16 mm of solid, mass-coloured material already resists better than a surface print — but the scenario barely exists: Carocim systematically applies an anti-UV treatment to its outdoor cement tiles, so the pigments of this pink, black, yellow and white design are protected from day one. Simply maintain the sealer and the colours stay true.

On this colourway, the background is not white at all but a chalky, limestone-inspired pink — hence the name — with white appearing only in the motifs alongside black and yellow. For a softer or off-white ground, look at the other Toumèto colourways or ask Carocim about adapting this cement tile through its colour chart.

Yes — genuinely intricate: the quarter-rosette demands a divider mould with finely curved compartments, each hand-filled with pink, black, yellow or white pigment before pressing. The more sinuous the drawing, the more demanding the pour. That handwork is exactly what gives this Carocim cement tile its depth, far from any printed imitation.

Anchor the mix with repetition: in an eclectic room, lay this Carocim cement tile over one generous, continuous surface so its pink quarter-rosette becomes the unifying thread. Echo one motif colour — the yellow or the black — in textiles and objects, and let vintage finds orbit around it. Eclectic then reads as curated, not chaotic.
