Marrakesh Zellige | 4"x4" Ceramic Wall Tile

Marrakesh Zellige  is a 4" x 4" glossy ceramic wall tile that celebrates the charm of handcrafted North African ceramics with a modern twist. Its gently irregular edges, rich shade variation, and luminous glaze turn everyday walls into artful, one-of-a-kind surfaces, perfect for kitchens, baths, and feature walls in both residential and commercial spaces.

Product Features:

Handcrafted look: Poetic edge imperfections and subtle surface movement recreate the feel of artisan Berber hand-chiselled tiles, giving walls warmth and character.

Vibrant color palette: Nine saturated shades (from soft Bianco and Beige to bold Bordeaux, Teal, Oltremare, Nero, and more) can be used tone-on-tone or mixed for playful patterns.

Rich shade variation: Moderate color variation within each color body creates depth and a naturally varied, “installed by hand” look rather than a flat, uniform surface.

Glossy, light-reflecting finish: A high-gloss glaze enhances color, reflects light, and makes small spaces feel brighter and more open while adding an elegant, contemporary touch.

Sustainable, certified choice: Single-fired white-body ceramic produced by Marazzi Group, with LEED-contributing certifications (EPD, HPD, GREENGUARD Gold, Declare) for healthier, more eco-conscious projects.
