Subway Tile

The 3 x 6 brick-shaped subway tile was introduced into popularity at the turn of the century when the New York City Subway opened. Today, subway tiles are diverse in size, finish and color, and no longer are only reserved for residential bathroom installations.

In the past, subway tile featured plain border pieces and was paired with beadboard paneling and hex mosaic. Today, you will find it paired with many different types of tile from glass to metal. Whether you are looking to restore a traditional home or searching for a modern classic, subway tiles may be your design solution.

We offer an array of tile perfect for restoration of a traditional home. For the floor we have both spiral and plaid patterned mosaics, as well as the popular hex mosaic. For the walls, Manhattan offers a machine made, white subway tile in both a straight edge and a beveled edge. The beveled Manhattan is modern and urban, while still retaining a classic and traditional appearance.
