What Is Authentic Subway Tile?
Authentic subway tile is a sophisticated and precise system of ceramic tile that defined how every bathroom and kitchen in pre-war American homes were tiled. This authentically historical subway tile was so diversified that it could be used to tile a New York Brooklyn brownstone home, as well as the New York subway system. Authentic subway tile became the shared standard across the nation.
The Subway Ceramics subway tile collection is a historically accurate reproduction that represents a tradition of mastery in tile craftsmanship dating back to the 1900s.
Subway Ceramics represents the state-of-the-art craft of tilemaking that remains relevant today. Five features that represent authentic subway tile from Subway Ceramics are:
- Pencil-thin grout lines
- Soft radius corner trims
- Historically accurate glazes
- Sculptural ceramic accessories
- Unglazed porcelain mosaics
