Our team of skilled ceramic artists individually hand paint each design, using the traditional 驶majolica始 technique using complex brushstrokes. It takes months of training to achieve the exceptional quality that is our trademark. Each tile is hallmarked and signed by the artist before firing in our kilns.

BRITISH BIRDS

The Marlborough Tiles Factory is located on the banks of the beautiful River Kennet. We often see herons fishing in the crystal clear water and our artists and captured the elegance and grace of these stunning birds in two 6 tile panels. The high moorlands of Britain are home to a wide variety of birds, some of which we illustrate here.

INFORMATION, ADVICE & DELIVERY INFORMATION

Marlborough Tiles have been making tiles since the beginning of the last century. Throughout our history lies a heritage of craftsmanship and quality and many of the techniques used today remain unchanged. The information provided below aims to help you select the tiles most suited to your application.

SERVICES & PRODUCT INFO 106

SALES & SAMPLE SERVICE We hope you have enjoyed browsing through our brochure and discovered something of interest. We have worked hard on the presentation of the product in this brochure, but the truth is that no reproduction can capture the precise colour and texture of each individual tile. We therefore urge you to visit a showroom where you can see the inherent beauty of these tiles first hand. If you are unable to visit a showroom, please call us to order samples, for which a small charge will be made. We sell our products through our Marlborough showroom and an extensive network of Recommended Tile Retailers across the country. To find out where you can see or place an order for our tiles locally, please call 01672 512422 or visit www.marlboroughtiles.com

EXPORT SALES We have experience in exporting all over the world and our in-house wall collections can now be seen in a growing list of countries including Ireland, France, The Netherlands, Belgium, Russia, Japan, Italy, Israel, Norway and Sweden. Please call +44 1672 512422 for further information.

DELIVERIES We deliver to our network of Recommended Tile Retailers on a weekly basis or can deliver to your door, both of which incur a small charge. Whilst we endeavour to hold all tiles other than hand painted designs in stock, occasionally there are delays in production. In addition our hand painted designs are painted to order and therefore you should allow up to a further 3 weeks for delivery. Please bear this in mind when booking a tiler as we do not accept responsibility for lost working time in the event of a delivery being incorrect, damaged or delayed. By prior arrangement, orders can be also be collected from our factory in Marlborough. Whilst we endeavour to ensure that all orders are correctly packed, occasionally errors do occur. Therefore we request that you please check goods on receipt; only damaged and incorrect tiles notified within 3 working days will be remedied. SPECIAL THANKS TO: Fired Earth Bathrooms Jamie & Jo Kate Mrs Summers

Mrs. Ferguson Aga Rayburn Scott & Charis Roz & Edward

Mr Rundle Mrs Back Anita, Jenny, Kirsty & Helen All the team at Marlborough Tiles

Full boxes of other tiles may be returned within 4 weeks of order, but there will be a 20% restocking charge, so we urge you to measure carefully.

For the same reason, please advise us if you are adding to a previous order so that we can do all possible to get the closest match.The customer will have the right to return all goods if they are not happy with their selection. The goods must be returned unbroken in the original packaging to retailer or direct to us and the customer will be responsible for the cost of arranging transport and insurance of goods.

RECOMMENDED TILE RETAILERS A full list of tile showrooms where the ranges featured in this brochure are displayed on our website:

APPEARANCE WALL TILE COLLECTIONS Our tiles are hand crafted and hand painted and are, as such subject to minor colour variation both within the batch and from batch to batch, Where possible, tiles should be laid out prior to fixing or taken randomly from several boxes to allow for blending of any shade variation. Over a period of time ceramic tiles may craze which should be considered a characteristic rather than an imperfection of this type of tile.The surface of our hand crafted tiles may vary in the degree of undulation from batch to batch. Tiles may not be perfectly square due to uneven shrinkage in firing. GLASS WALL COLLECTIONS Glass is subject to minor colour variation and can be prone to scratching so is best used in wall areas not subject to surface abrasion. It has excellent stain and water resistant properties.

SPECIFICATION The dimensions listed throughout the brochure may be subject to minor inaccuracies and are given as a guide only. The number of tiles supplied per metre is dependent on the size of grout joint recommended. When calculating the number of tiles required for your project, please allow 7.5-10% extra for cutting and wastage. MAINTENANCE Glass tiles should be cleaned using a soft cloth and glass cleaner. Our other wall and floor tile collections may be cleaned as above or with a proprietary tile cleaner, using a soft or non-abrasive cloth.

FIXING & SEALING We strongly recommend that you use a tile fitter experienced in fitting specialised tiles. Before commencing any work, we recommend that you and your fitter read our Product Information sheet, available on www.marlboroughtiles.com In particular we draw your attention to the importance of surface preparation prior to tiling, checking the tiles prior to fixing to ensure there are sufficient and that they are correct, sealing the tiles where recommended, and finally, protecting the newly laid tiles from ongoing work in the vicinity. WALLS Grout joint - we recommend a grout width of around 3-5mm for the wall tile collections in this brochure. Our tiles should be laid by eye and not using spacers, halving any size difference. A wet cutter should be used. Crackle glaze sealer - our Contemporary Classics, Vintage, Posterity, Cool Companions and Simplicity collections have a crackle glaze and require sealing with Marlborough Tiles Crackle Glaze Sealer. Tiles to be cut must be sealed prior to cutting. All other tiles must be sealed after fixing.

Glass - glass tiles must be cut with a diamond blade designed for cutting glass rather than a ceramic blade that will chip them. White adhesive with a flexi-additive should be used and applied evenly all over the back of the tile. Please read the detailed instructions on the complexities of laying glass available on www.marlboroughtiles.com or by calling us on

01672 512422.

Brochure The information contained in this brochure is, to the best of our knowledge, correct at the time of going to press. However, it is possible that there may be changes over time and we recommend that all detail critical to your project is checked prior to ordering.
