shopping cartMoorish, Spanish, African, Italian, Mexican, and Southwestern Tiles
As the most western of the African countries, Morocco has long served as a gateway between cultures. These intercultural connections are evident in the Moorish tile architecture, the food, the arts and the music. All these influences make Moroccan culture varied and complex and allow artistic expression to bloom from the colorful inputs of many different backgrounds. That’s why Casablanca Market is proud to be able to bring you a wide selection of Moorish, Italian, Spanish, African, Southwestern and Mexican tiles handcrafted and painted.
One creation in one culture inevitably influences another. The legacy of deep Spanish roots and Moorish style blend with natural talent and color-acuteness in Mexican tile craftsmanship. With the mix of cultures and peoples, even lands as far away as the North American southwest have been touched by the beauty and craftsmanship of Moroccan design. Southwestern tiles share many of the color schemes and patterns of the Mediterranean because of the Spanish influence in the New World.
Spanish Renaissance tile design and style provide shades of blue, yellow, and orange to create a brightly fascinating border, or an overall pattern reminiscent of Italian tile fountains and dramatic entries. Casablanca Market also carries ceramic tiles and murals imported from Tunisia. Like all the tiles we offer, these African tiles are frost proof and guaranteed for outdoor life.
The Moroccan influence on Portuguese and Spanish design is obvious in many categories of décor. Like the Moroccan, Spanish tiles have infused the contributions of the Arab, Mediterranean and European cultures.
