Reed Harris Interior Focus Reed Harris Launches Beautiful Cocciopesto Range Of Porcelain Wall And Floor Tiles T he stunning new Cocciopesto collection of porcelain floor and wall tiles from leading tile specialist Reed Harris provides a contemporary take on a traditional material to great effect. This chic and sophisticated new range gets its name from, and plays homage to, the decorative technique of Cocciopesto, which was used in ancient Greece and Rome and saw tile fragments mixed with mortar to create an incredibly durable material. Featuring a beautiful, handcrafted look, Cocciopesto tiles see the markings of terrazzo paired with plain cement to create this stunning new range of porcelain tiles. Available in six on trend, neutral colours of Calce, Portland, Malta, Calcestruzzo, Sabbia and Terracotta, the glazed porcelain Cocciopesto tiles have a tactile matt finish and come in a choice of three styles. Measuring 600mm by 600mm by 10mm, square tiles are priced at £47.50 per sq m, while single colour hexagon tiles, which measure 600mm by 600mm by 10mm cost £59.50 per sq m. Also measuring 600mm by 600mm by 10mm and completing the range are striking dual colour hexagon tiles, which are priced at £74.50 per sq m. Karen Brimacombe, Reed Harris’ Business Development Manager, says: “Available in six warm and sophisticated muted tones, our new Cocciopesto range is a fantastic addition to our portfolio of porcelain floor and wall tiles. Particularly noteworthy are the beautiful dual colour hexagon tiles, which can be used to create unique, eye-catching designs for a real tailor-made look.” 81
