Mediterranean Pool Tiles
for Coral Gables Estates

Coral Gables was designed as a Mediterranean city — its canals, coral rock estates, and Venetian Pool are the ideal context for authentic handcrafted tile. Our Moroccan, Spanish, and Mediterranean pool tile collections speak directly to this architectural language, specified by designers working on the City Beautiful's most distinguished residential projects.

Coral Gables · The Setting

The Mediterranean City, Authentically Tiled

George Merrick's vision for Coral Gables was explicitly Mediterranean — modeled on the villages and palazzos of Spain, Italy, and Morocco. That heritage makes Coral Gables the single most natural market in Florida for our tile: the architecture was designed around these materials.

Today, Coral Gables estates command median prices around $2.5 million, and homeowners investing in pool renovations increasingly seek authentic handcraft over mass-produced ceramic. Architects restoring historic estates specify our tile to achieve the depth and patina the setting demands.

We serve architects, designers, and homeowners across Coral Gables, South Miami, Pinecrest, and Miami-Dade County.

Why Mediterranean Pool Tiles

What Architects and Designers Specify — and Why

01
Genuine Craft, Not Factory Approximation
Every tile is hand-produced in Morocco or southern Spain using traditional methods. The variation, depth, and patina of genuine handcraft cannot be replicated by machine-pressed ceramic — and the difference is immediately legible in a finished pool.
02
Specified for Florida's Environment
Our glazed tile collections are tested for saltwater and chlorine resistance, UV stability, and Florida's demanding climate. We stock only high-fire glazed ceramics appropriate for submerged pool applications.
03
Trade Support for Design Professionals
Architects and interior designers receive trade account access, specification samples, technical data sheets, and project consultation. Samples ship fast, lead times are quoted upfront, and custom orders are managed to schedule.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What tile styles are most authentic for Coral Gables' Mediterranean Revival architecture? +
Coral Gables' founding architectural vision was drawn from Spanish, Italian, and Moroccan precedents — making our Spanish azulejo, Moroccan zellige, and encaustic cement tile collections especially fitting. For pool waterlines, we recommend geometric glazed ceramic borders in terracotta, cobalt, and ivory tones.
Do you supply pool tiles to Coral Gables architects and interior designers? +
Yes. We work with architects, interior designers, and landscape designers throughout Miami-Dade County, including Coral Gables, South Miami, Coconut Grove, and Pinecrest. Trade accounts are available with specification samples and project support.
Can your tiles be used to restore a historic Coral Gables pool? +
Yes, and this is one of our specialties. For pool renovations on historic Coral Gables estates, we can work with your architect to source tile that matches original material intent — appropriate glazes, patterns, and clay bodies consistent with 1920s–1940s Mediterranean Revival tile craft.
Are your pool tiles chlorine and heat resistant for South Florida conditions? +
All pool tiles in our catalog use high-fire glazed ceramic or vitrified encaustic bodies appropriate for submerged and splash-zone applications. Our glazes are tested for chlorine resistance and UV stability.
What is the difference between your Spanish tile and Mediterranean tile collections? +
Our Spanish tile collection draws specifically from the azulejo tradition — tin-glazed ceramic with geometric and hand-painted patterns. Our Mediterranean tile collection is broader, encompassing encaustic cement tile, hand-painted ceramic from Tunisia and southern Italy, and geometric glazed ceramic from across the Mediterranean basin.
How do I get samples delivered to Coral Gables? +
