SALTILLO tiles are handmade by artisans in Northern Mexico. The locally sourced clay is formed into tiles, dried in the sun and then fired in kilns. Depending on the positioning of the tile in the kiln, it can range in color from yellow to red with many tiles having a mixture of those colors. Sometimes referred to as Mexican Saltillo tile, each tile is unique, and the artisan process to make them often includes imprints of nature. A lucky batch may contain footprints of animals or creatures nearby.
