JULEP TILE COMPANY About The Company Founded in 2010 by Peter and Kirsten Sharp, Julep Tile Company provides classic, timeless designs handcrafted in an environmentally-conscious manner. Inspired by a love of intricate textile and wallpaper patterns, our collection provides an elegant backdrop for any kitchen or bathroom. From the sophisticated Damask design to the charming Bloom pattern, our tiles and trim are available in a range of soft, earthy colors. Each tile is handmade in our Louisville, Colorado studio by our team of skilled artisans. From its beginnings as a freshly-pressed tile to being hand-glazed and finally fired in our electric kilns, our manufacturing process requires each piece to be touched by hand an average of fifteen times before it is shipped out to your home.
Owners, Peter & Kirsten Sharp
Each order is created with minimal impact on the environment. Rather than manufacturing in two firings – a bisque firing followed by a glaze firing – we achieve exceptional quality in a single firing, reducing our energy use significantly. Each project is made to order in the color and amount of your choosing, minimizing excess wastage. When the order is complete, leftover clay scraps are recycled allowing us to use them for the next job. Packaging materials are reused at every opportunity. At Julep Tile Company, we strive to create high-quality, handcrafted tile that makes you excited to be in your home. We hope you enjoy our product as much as we enjoy making it.

Catalog Notes Application
Glazes
Intended for indoor walls/backsplashes only. Outdoor use in temperate climates only. Glazes with codes beginning in “CL” and “CR” are not suitable for installation in extremely wet areas like showers or pools.
Each pattern is available in any glaze in the color palette. Prices are the same for all glaze colors. Glazes with codes beginning in “CL” and “CR” will continue to develop cracks over time. This effect, called crazing, is a natural process and is to be expected.
Lead Time Typically 4-6 weeks. Estimate given at time of order placement.
Inspection All products should be inspected immediately upon receipt for damaged or missing material and any issues regarding the shipment reported within 5 days. No claims regarding size or color of tile will be honored after installation.
Variations
Installation & Maintenance We recommend using a sanded grout. All installed tile should be sealed with a silicone-based sealant. Glazes with codes beginning in “CL” and “CR” should be sealed once a year as the cracks in the glaze will continue to develop. Some wearing and scratching of the glaze surface over time is expected. Do not use an abrasive scouring pad when cleaning the tile. We recommend using a nonabrasive, non-acidic household cleaning product.
Product dimensions and glaze colors may vary.
