PICTURES ON WEBSITE AND IN CATALOGS 
Here at Tortuga Tile Works, we continually strive to improve our product lines.  The pieces represented here are made by press molding clay into molds, firing the tiles once in a bisque kiln and a second time in a glaze kiln.  Most of the glazes are made from scratch. Due to this process there may be some slight variance in color and texture in the finished piece as compared to the representative photo.  However, we strive to maintain a high level of quality and try to produce uniformity in items.
In the case of large orders or custom designs, tile samples are available. Samples are complimentary if the order is placed, otherwise the samples must be returned or purchased. The Customer is responsible for return shipping costs.
