17th Century Collection, Tilevera

These limestone tiles give historical delftware designs a contemporary upgrade.


Delftware’s charm never gets old, particularly when designers continually rework its presentation. The 17th Century collection from tile designer Deborah Osburn for Tilevera swaps the traditional blue, white, yellow, and magenta hues with pink, gray, green, teal, and persimmon (shown) to “punch up elegant 400-year-old designs,” Osburn says. Offered in six floral patterns. cletile.com
