Frames or Liners

View a gallery of each tile by selecting an image below. You might refer to these tiles as liners, mouldings, borders or even listellos.  They are used to surround the main decorative tile and set it off from your flat tiles.  Any liner can be used with any main tile, although I find that most of my customers are choosing to use the Plain Frame liner because it does not distract from the design of the large center tile. It usually takes 10 to 14 pieces of liner to surround one of the large tiles although that number can increase based on the complexity of the set. I will be happy to cut these pieces before glazing so that the installation process will go smoother.
