Ceramic Tile and Mosaics
Ceramic and marble tiles have been around for a long time, and their use in mosaic surfaces has always been an enjoyable challenge from a restoration viewpoint. With the advent and dispersal of porcelain technology in the last two centuries, these useful and durable materials became a regular component of many historic structures. The ceramic and marble tile restoration projects below give some indication of how varied these materials can be.
