Embossed Tiles
Embossed tiles create depth, texture and a handcrafted feel that elevates any room. Their raised patterns catch light in subtle ways that bring a wall or floor to life. For homeowners, designers and restorers looking for a distinctive feature tile, this style offers both visual interest and long-term durability.
A closer look at our embossed tiles
Our embossed tiles are designed for interior applications that require detail and refinement. Each piece features tactile raised patterns that draw from classic motifs and heritage-inspired flourishes, giving walls a textured finish that performs well in high-use areas while still presenting as a decorative feature.
You can choose from two sizes. The square 152 x 152 mm tile forms a strong base for patterned walls, while the 152 x 76 mm rectangular tile is ideal for borders and finishing edges. Both tiles share a 9.5 mm thickness, helping installers create clean lines and consistent finishes on walls and fireplaces
Experience the advantages of embossed tiles
Here are the key advantages of choosing our embossed tiles in Australia for your interior projects:
- Visual appeal — Embossed tiles add depth through raised patterning that catches light and creates a more engaging surface. The subtle shadows formed by the textured finish bring movement to the wall and help highlight architectural features.
- Long-lasting performance — The durable finish supports a wide range of interior applications without losing its decorative detail over time. The raised patterns are designed to hold their shape, making the tiles a reliable choice for areas that see frequent use
- Heritage compatibility — The patterns complement heritage homes and period style restorations while still feeling relevant in contemporary settings. Their handcrafted look suits traditional interiors, yet the clean lines and refined motifs also blend well with minimalist design choices.
- Design versatility — Embossed tiles work well as a feature element alongside plain tiles or tessellated designs. They can be used sparingly to highlight specific areas, or incorporated as a full feature to create a standout wall that balances texture with classic styling.
- Flexible layout options — The two available sizes support a wide range of pattern combinations, borders and accent layouts. The square and rectangular formats give designers and homeowners the freedom to build more detailed decorative arrangements.

FAQs
What are embossed tiles, and how do they differ from regular tiles?
Tessellated Tile Factory’s embossed tiles in Australia feature a raised or recessed pattern on the surface, giving them texture and depth. Unlike smooth, flat tiles, these designs create a tactile element that adds visual interest and subtle shadow effects as light changes throughout the day.
Many homeowners, designers and architects choose them to bring character and craftsmanship to walls, splashbacks and decorative features, making them versatile.
What design options are available in your embossed tile collection?
We offer a curated range of heritage-inspired patterns, botanical motifs and intricate geometric designs. Colours span from neutral tones to bold accents, with white embossed tiles being a classic choice for timeless interiors.
You can select from glossy finishes, and we can help you pick designs that suit period homes or modern projects, ensuring your tiles complement your overall design vision.
Are embossed tiles suitable for both walls and floors?
No, we don’t have embossed floor tiles. Our embossed tiles are Australian designs best suited for walls only due to their textured finish, which requires careful underfoot cleaning. We help homeowners and trade professionals choose tiles that balance design, practicality and durability for the intended space so every installation meets both aesthetic and functional needs.
Are embossed tiles recommended for residential and commercial use?
Yes. We supply embossed tiles for Australian homes, hospitality venues, retail spaces and other commercial settings. Residential projects often use them for kitchen splashbacks, bathroom walls and decorative panels. For commercial spaces, they work well in reception areas, feature walls and boutique fit-outs.
Based on your space’s purpose, we can recommend suitable finishes from our white embossed tiles and coloured ranges for each environment.
Are embossed tiles suitable for heritage or period-style restorations?
Absolutely. Our designs replicate the depth and detailing found in traditional tiling from Victorian, Federation and Art Deco periods. We help heritage homeowners and restoration specialists select patterns from our range of Australian embossed tiles, respect original architecture while meeting modern installation standards and preserve authenticity without compromising quality.
Can I check your embossed tile range at your showroom?
Of course. Our Sydney showroom displays our complete collection of tiles in Australia, including our embossed tiles, tessellated tiles, mosaic tiles, stone step treads, subway tiles, trimming tiles, decorative tiles and hearth tiles. No appointment is needed. You can explore patterns, colours and finishes in person, with guidance from our experienced team to ensure you make the most informed selection.
How should I plan an embossed tile installation?
Measure your space carefully and discuss your vision with a professional tiler. The raised patterns of white embossed tiles or coloured designs require precise alignment for a seamless look. We can advise on layout, grout selection and design flow, ensuring the installation reflects your goals and maximises the impact of your chosen pattern.
How do I maintain embossed tiles?
We recommend cleaning with a soft cloth or sponge and a pH-neutral cleaner. For textured areas, a soft brush will help remove dust or residue from recessed details. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive tools to protect the surface. With proper care, your embossed tiles in Australia will retain their crisp detailing and vibrant finish for years.
