Tanger Checkerboard 2×2 Zellige Tile

The Tanger Checkerboard 2×2 Zellige Tile features a classic Moroccan checkerboard composition, combining a rich deep blue tone with a soft off-white contrast. Inspired by the historic coastal city of Tangier, this color pairing evokes Mediterranean depth and timeless elegance while highlighting the authentic character of handcrafted zellige.

Each tile is individually handmade, showcasing subtle glaze movement, natural surface variation, and gently irregular edges. These nuances are not imperfections but a defining signature of traditional Moroccan craftsmanship, ensuring every installation feels unique and full of life. The checkerboard layout introduces rhythm and visual balance, making it suitable for both heritage-inspired interiors and modern architectural spaces.

Tanger zellige tiles are suitable for residential and commercial applications, including high-traffic interior floors such as kitchens, primary bathrooms, and entryways, as well as low-traffic areas like guest bathrooms and bedrooms. They work beautifully on interior walls, including kitchen backsplashes, bathroom walls, and decorative feature walls, adding depth and artisanal charm.

For more demanding environments, Tanger tiles can be used on shower walls and floors, including steam showers, and are also appropriate for pools and spas, whether saltwater or chlorine. They are compatible with radiant heated floor systems and may be installed around fireplace surrounds, excluding the interior firebox.

In exterior settings, this tile is suitable for exterior walls and outdoor floors in non-freeze climates.
❌ It is not suitable for exterior floors exposed to freeze or thaw conditions, such as snow or ice.
