Anyone seen 'raw' wood porcelain tiles like this in the UK?

Hi. As heading.




I can only find these abroad - the Ooh-ESS in this case. There are lots of 'wood' finish ceramic tiles, but I'm ideally looking for something as 'raw' and variant as this.

Any ideas? Thanks.

  • The "Sequoia" ones here (Wood Effect Tiles | Tile Giant) seem to have some similarities to the pic you posted. Their "Puzzlewood" ones are quite "raw" in a way, but more like distressed recycled painted wood, not "natural" like your example.

    I like 'distressed'/recycled. Nice - thank you. Will have a closer look. :smile:

    Yes, we saw some tiles rather like that when we want something specific for our bathroom (from Spain).  We saw them at a local independent massive warehouse that is local (but we did not buy from there as the business was new and the owner had a history of failed businesses).

    We then enquired at our local EuroTiles and Topps Tiles - neither could get the tiles but both recommended the same independent company (Norden Tiles) who were able to source exactly the tiles we wanted.  The process went very smoothly :)
    If you have found a tile you want, then you may find that the same people who sourced our tiles can source the type you are seeking.

    I bought my floor tiles from here and was very impressed with the service  They have lots of wood effect tiles and these are particularly rustic
