Tile Portrait of Cézanne

10% extra is usually enough for a straight layout, but for a diagonal layout with Carreau Tu es Mon Jour - Mains Jaune/Beige, it's safer to allow 15% or more, since angled cuts waste noticeably more of this Marta Pignol cement tile than a standard grid pattern. This detail is confirmed by Carocim, the brand behind this design.

For buyers seeking a genuinely handmade look, yes: Carreau Tu es Mon Jour - Mains Jaune/Beige costs more than a standard cement tile because each piece is hand-poured and pressed to a detailed Marta Pignol design, something no mass-produced ceramic tile can replicate. Carocim handles the production and distribution of this cement tile.

Yes, the coloured wear layer of Carreau Tu es Mon Jour - Mains Jaune/Beige is included within its overall 16 mm thickness, not added on top of it. This is standard construction for a Carocim cement tile, where the pigmented layer and cement backing are pressed together as one.

Yes, it's largely true: cement tiles such as Carreau Tu es Mon Jour - Mains Jaune/Beige tend to mellow gently rather than fade sharply in the sun, thanks to their mineral pigments and Carocim's anti-UV treatment, developing a soft patina over years instead of washing out.

Whether every box of Carreau Tu es Mon Jour - Mains Jaune/Beige comes from the same production batch is not confirmed in Carocim's data. Since this cement tile is handmade, mixing several boxes when laying it remains the best way to blend any batch-to-batch variation evenly.
