How many tiles will I need?
We recommend adding 10% extra on to your order to account for wastage. The exception to this rule is zellige, where we would recommend adding 15%. This additional % is called overage and you can adjust this % when using the tile calculator on this page.
If you have any questions about calculating overage, please contact design@bertandmay.com - being tile geeks, tiles + maths is a sweet spot for us!

Our zellige tiles are handmade in Morocco from a special blend of clays, and have a very distinct, raw aesthetic…
Our basketweave Zellige tiles bring together the timeless geometry of a classic pattern with the rich character of traditional Moroccan craftsmanship.
The beauty is in the imperfection.
Our zellige tiles are made in Fez, Morocco, in a small workshop of just 12 makers. This is a traditional craft that demands time, patience and an extraordinary level of skill - and there is simply no shortcut to making them properly.
Each tile begins life as a handmade biscuit, which is then cut by hand and carefully chiselled around the edges. It is this process that creates the wonderfully irregular shape and softly rough edges that give zellige its unmistakable character.
We have worked closely with our maker, José, to develop a small, beautifully considered palette of colours. Each batch has its own subtle variations in tone and finish, so we always recommend keeping tiles from the same batch together rather than mixing batches.
This is artisanal craft in its purest form - slow, imperfect and completely beautiful.

Important information
Our zellige and bejmat tiles are hand made in Fez using traditional, centuries old and artisanal methods. Each tile is individual and may not exactly match the colour and surface texture of the sample tile you receive. Fossilised shell pieces in the clay found around Fez cause pitting in the surface, chips and hairline cracks. This is totally normal and gives the rustic and authentic look we love. Please have a look at our lifestyle images to see examples of this. If you do not wish to use these types of tile in your project, we recommend ordering 25% extra to cover any discards you wish to make.
