Hand-cut glazed tiles: each one is unique

A wall made of hand-cut glazed tiles. Each tile is a small piece hammered and cut by an artisan, with uneven edges and varying thickness. The glaze has noticeable variations in shade, bubbles, and fine cracks, with the same color appearing in different intensities on different tiles. They are arranged into a continuous geometric pattern of interlocking octagonal stars, crosses, and diamonds, with extremely fine gaps and almost no grout. When light hits it, the entire wall sparkles with irregular, fragmented reflections. Avoid: using industrially mass-produced regular tiles, having uniform glaze color without shade variations, making the gaps wide and filling them with white grout, using printed imitation tiles.

一面手切釉磚拼成的牆。每一塊磚是工匠用鎚子敲切出來的小塊,邊緣不直、厚薄不一;釉面有明顯的深淺、氣泡與細裂紋,同一個顏色在不同的磚上濃淡不同。它們被拼成八角星、十字與菱形交織的連續幾何,縫隙極細幾乎沒有填縫料。光打上去時整面牆閃著不規則的細碎反光。避免:使用工業量產的規則磁磚、讓釉色均勻沒有深淺變化、把縫做寬並填上白色填縫劑、使用印刷仿製的磁磚。
