The core collection is available from stock for fast and reliable delivery, with supplementary items including edgings, inserts, mosaics and step treads on request.
Inspired by Antique Stone
The Montpellier Region of Southern France is famous for its ancient limestone quarries, producing natural stones in a range of warm neutral colours. In fact, Montpellier Porcelain is inspired by our reclaimed genuine antique Barr de Montpellier limestone. Today’s cutting-edge porcelain production techniques mean that natural materials, such as stone and wood, are capable of being replicated in a way that makes it almost impossible to distinguish them from the real thing.
A lovely warm colour that works particularly well against oak furniture and brass or copper tones, Montpellier porcelain sits beautifully with different types of surfaces and materials and contrasts well with a range of colours. As one of our most popular surfaces, it has all the enduring charm, beauty and strength of ancient stone, but with the practicality and durability of new-generation porcelain.
Combine different tile sizes to create authentic stone floor effects including opus and coursed layouts. Choose a custom cut octagon insert design with contrasting inserts for a classical look. Or Montpellier brick for one of two different sized tumbled-effect tiles that look handsome set in a brick pattern.
Exterior Excellence
The Montpellier collection now also offers the interior designer a whole host of supplementary products suitable for exterior applications including gardens and pool areas. These special order items are available in Beige, Grey and Ivory, on request, and include step treads, additional skirting sizes, drainage plates plus poolside and finishing edges.
A special R11 anti-slip textured finish is also available for Beige, Grey and Ivory Italian stock flags for external use – perfect for wet areas such as pools. Please allow approximately 3 to 4 weeks lead time and get in touch for further information and pricing.
