Sixty pieces make a box, which covers 6.67 square feet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMatte changes the argument\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost zellige is sold on its glossy, puddled glaze. Taking the reflection away leaves the hand work itself to carry the tile: uneven edges, pits in the surface, thickness that changes from one piece to the next, colour that shifts inside a single box. None of that is a defect in this tile, it is the record of how it was made. Matte also hides smudges that a gloss would collect, which is worth knowing for a surface within reach. Colour inside one box can swing further than a catalogue photograph suggests, which is why the boxes want opening and mixing before any of it goes down.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHand cut\u003c\/strong\u003e Edges, pits and colour shifts come with the tile.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSixty a box\u003c\/strong\u003e 6.67 square feet from one box.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eResidential interior floors\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eResidential interior floors is the approval on file, and kitchen is the room listed.
