Product Overview

House Number Tile

House number tiles are made on the same porcelain body as our art panels and can have small holes formed in the body before firing, so the plate can be screwed, pinned or framed without drilling fired ceramic on site.

Numbers, letters and small motifs are customised for pattern and size, and several pieces can be combined into one plate or framed as a decorative set.

Yes. Numbers, letters and motifs are all customised.
