Lava Stone Tiles

File Under Pop lava stone tiles are extracted from the active Sicilian volcano Mount Etna, where the lava stone has been compacted for up to 3.000 years, before is it carved out from about 20 meters of depth below the surface. Seeing daylight for the first time in centuries, the process of producing lava stone tiles starts by cutting the natural stone into bigger slaps, which are then carefully processed to become File Under Pop tiles of different formats.

Lava stone is the only stone of nature, which can be converted to have a ceramic surface. The material is well-known for its beautiful, lively surface showing spots and marks, which stem for the process of firing the material, during which glaze and stone merge and become one. These natural imperfections vary from tile to tile, as the minerals and other natural ingredients of the stone will act slightly different each time the lava stone is processed.

In addition to its unique expression, the lava stone is characterized by a tremendous durability, as the material can withstand up to 60 degrees frost and up to 1,000 degrees of heat, making lava stone tiles a beautiful and long-lasting element of interior design and well suited for all types of surfaces.


Clay Tiles

File Under Pop clay tiles come from a family owned production located about an hour’s drive outside the Spanish town of Valencia. All clay tiles are worked entirely by hand, using silk-screening and hand-printing techniques to create patterns and motifs. A special trade of File Under Pop clay tiles is the unique look of each surface, showcasing the individual brushstrokes, which stem from the process of applying the glaze color onto the surface of each tile. The method of hand-glazing the clay makes each and every tile a unique piece of craftsmanship.

We recommend you and / or your tiler

  • Always consult a professional before processing our tiles. We can only guarantee the quality of our tiles at the time of delivery, and do NOT take responsibility for errors related to cutting, mounting, or grouting tiles in your space. 

  • We kindly advise you and/or your tiler do a grout testing on a single tile before beginning the process of tiling. This process is necessary to clarify the effect your grout may have on your tiles. A grout that is darker or stronger in color than you tile, may leave unwanted traces on the surface of the tile. 

  • From our perspective, a minimal distance between tiles, creates the most cohesive expression. We suggest 1-2 mm of grout thickness, but of course this may vary depending on your specific needs for the project. 

  • To create a harmonious layout before mounting the tiles - carefully placing each tile with a balance of tone and expression in mind. We suggest to evenly spread out darker or lighter hues across the entire surface to create a balanced whole.

  • We suggest, to lay out clay tiles with visible brushstrokes at random, meaning the strokes are not following the same direction, to create a vivid and playful surface.
