Frieze Weather Vane

Yes to almost every room: entrance halls, kitchens, living rooms, bathrooms and even outdoor spaces, since Frise Girouette is rated for exterior use. Its black, blue, yellow and red medallion shines wherever a floor needs framing or rhythm. Like any Carocim cement tile, it only asks for sealing and neutral-soap care in wet or busy areas.

The divider mould is the guardian of consistency: for every Frise Girouette, the same metal matrix separates black, blue, yellow and red before pressing, reproducing the medallion identically. Hands change, the drawing does not. Minute shade nuances remain — the charm of a handmade Carocim cement tile — but the pattern's geometry stays perfectly true.

10 years is well within its comfort zone: designed for outdoor use, Frise Girouette carries the anti-UV treatment Carocim systematically gives its exterior cement tiles, so the black, blue, yellow and red pigments stay protected and true. Expect the colours you chose, enriched by a soft mineral patina — the graceful way a Carocim floor ages.

With made-to-order production, that level of detail is possible: the Carocim U colour chart lets you assign one shade to the background and others to the medallion of Frise Girouette, colour by colour. Discuss your combination with the workshop, which validates feasibility and rendering. It is one of the great freedoms of the handcrafted cement tile.

No heavy schedule is required: routine washing with neutral soap keeps Frise Girouette healthy, and a deeper clean is only worthwhile before resealing, when the surface stops beading water. Skip aggressive products entirely — acids and bleach are the real enemies of a cement tile. Carocim's philosophy is gentle regularity over occasional scouring.
