Antique terracotta floor 44 x 22 cm

Antique terracotta flooring 44 x 22 cm with a rectangular shape and a thickness of approximately 3/3.5 cm. They feature a beautiful shaded pink hue, sourced from a Tuscan/Romagnol farmhouse.

The beauty of antique terracotta makes for refined flooring, and like few other types of flooring, it has the merit of offering architectural continuity between indoors and outdoors. You can, in fact, choose to cover both indoor and outdoor floors. Or, you can also choose to cover walls and other surfaces. The more terracotta, the better!

Once installed, this reclaimed terracotta will create the atmosphere of a true farmhouse of yesteryear in your home.

The 44 x 22 cm rectangular antique terracotta floor is considered to be of absolute prestige. This regard for terracotta was not always the case, however. Today, the historical value of this material, used in antiquity for flooring, is appreciated. This is because these terracotta floors have been salvaged from ancient villas, palaces, and farmhouses in central Italy and are therefore a direct testament to our traditions and our history.

Until not long ago, as mentioned earlier, this was not the case: in the reception halls of noble residences, it was preferred to show off precious marble or Venetian-style floors, relegating terracotta to service areas or private rooms. However, there is no shortage of splendid counter-examples, such as the beautiful antique terracotta floors of the Doria Pamphilj Palace in Rome, dating back to the 17th century.
