Carolina Clay

Carolina Clay.

Lowcountry terracotta — a four-pattern collection of architectural floor and wall tile with the warmth of hand-glazed character.

Four distinct patterns within a single collection — Palms Steel, Seabrook Blu, Summerville Cotto, and Whitehall Bianco — each a complete design in its own right, unified by the same body, matte finish, and dimensional sizes. Available in 8"x16", 16"x16", 40"x40", and a Modular packaged mix for versailles-style installs. Indoor-focused (PEI 4, no outdoor or pool) — the architectural choice for refined floors, walls, and feature installations across hospitality, residential, and commercial interior projects.

Frequently asked

Each pattern (Palms Steel, Seabrook Blu, Summerville Cotto, Whitehall Bianco) is a separate design within the Carolina Clay collection — different color stories, different visual character, but unified by the same body, finish, and dimensional sizes. Designers can pick a single pattern as a focal floor or mix patterns across rooms within a project for a coordinated but varied feel.

Modular is a packaged mix of three coordinating sizes (typically 8x16, 16x16, 40x40 within the same pattern), designed to install in a versailles-style or interlocking pattern. Comes with a recommended layout diagram. Designers love it for adding visual rhythm without the spec headache of individually pulling sizes.

No — Carolina Clay is rated for indoor, backsplash, and shower applications only. Despite being frost-resistant, it isn't rated for outdoor floors, pool surrounds, or exterior walls. For outdoor terracotta projects, Antilles Clay is the suitable alternative within the Alexander James Porcelain Collection.
