Product Overview

The Mansion collection consists of porcelain stoneware tiles designed to replicate the aged, vintage appearance of antique wood. Inspired by hand-shaved wood and restored floorboards, the tiles use advanced ceramic technology to achieve a realistic wood effect suitable for modern interiors.

Technical Specifications

• Material: Porcelain stoneware (Gres porcellanato)
• Tile Thickness: 9 mm
