Thatcher Tiles are a handmade product - look for quality but not perfection in color, tone, thickness and edges. 2-3% breakage during shipping and handling of materials is considered normal.

Slip-Testing: DCOF (Dynamic Coefficient Of Friction) AcuTest, as stated by the TCNA (Tile Council of North America) ANSI A137.1-2012 averages at .65. This means that this is appropriate for commercial and wet applications.

Minimum order for each tile individual tile type  is 12 tiles. Orders must be placed in increments of 12 tiles per tile type in order to ensure that the tiles are packaged and shipped correctly and to minimize breakage.

Lead time is 8-10 weeks.

Waving

This timeless curved stripe design can be installed in two different ways. By arranging the tiles in vertical columns of varying direction, the tiles create a billowing stripe depicting rippling curtains or fabric, or rising and falling surf. The tiles may also be arranged in a “basket weave” arrangement, by placing the tiles in a checkerboard pattern of alternating directions. In this animated arrangement, Waving provides the pleasing visual effect of appearing to be a woven, three-dimensional, structure that feels ironically warm and soft while being constructed of cement.
