Mexican tile (Saltillo tile)

The use of Mexican or Saltillo tile was very popular during the seventies and it has gone out of style since. However, this tile has many redeeming qualities but mainly it adds rustic charm like no other tile out there. The softness of the clay makes it vulnerable to damage but this only increases the charm.  A coat of polyurethane will make it look as good as new.
