Harlequin Tile Flooring and Walls

ceramic tiles
When you’re selecting tile flooring and walls, a small design detail might be all you need to separate the ordinary from the extraordinary. For example, you can craft a distinct look easily by selecting your tiles in harlequin cuts. These diamond shaped tiles lend themselves to creative patterns with undertones both whimsical and geometric. Whether you’re designing porcelain tile flooring or a ceramic kitchen backsplash, harlequin tiles can elevate your décor to a whole new level.

For harlequin tile flooring, decorators love the Amiata series by American Olean tiles. This collection features unpolished porcelain tiles in soothing earth tones that balance out the captivating harlequin pattern. Amiata tiles are also suited for use on walls.

The American Olean Caché series, alternatively, offers punchy ceramic tiles available in glazed harlequin cuts. These glossy tiles are perfect for kitchen backsplashes and shower walls, especially when placed near a light source to capitalize on their luster and depth of color. Choose the dark brown “Mink” ceramic tiles for an intense design, or keep things light with milder shades like “Biscuit” and “Ice White.”
