4. White Moroccan Cross with High Variation
Our tile doesn't have to be a complex installation to be interesting, as this Moroccan Cross backsplash can attest. Our 130 White is one of our favorite glaze colors because of its high variation which creates an organic coloring throughout the entire piece. This is due to the glaze's opacity, which varies based on the brush stroke of each Tile Elve's unique application. Learn more about our handmade ceramic tile making process here.
