Description
Magenta glazed terracotta is a decorative ceramic block with a glossy patterned surface and a magenta base colour. The block has an intricate tile like pattern which changes appearance depending on its rotation and when placed next to other glazed terracotta blocks it can form repeating motifs and large murals. This makes it ideal for ornate floors, feature walls and for areas where artwork is part of the architecture. To make glazed terracotta players must dye and then smelt terracotta which means the process requires clay, dye and a furnace step to achieve the glazed finish. The final result is a sturdy patterned tile that resists fire and weather which makes it suitable for both interior and exterior installations. Glazed terracotta carries a strong visual style so it is best used in measured amounts to avoid overwhelming a space. Builders often use it to create focal points in halls and public squares or to produce luxurious floors in mansions and temples. The magenta tones provide a rich alternative to more muted tiles and can be balanced with plain blocks to create framed patterns. Because the appearance changes with rotation careful placement can create a wide variety of looks even with the same block type.
