decorative borders

Ceramic borders are hand-painted pieces used to decorate interior walls. Moldings and borders of different sizes that will adapt to almost any need that our project has.

Years ago it was one of the ceramic elements most in demand by decoration trends. But currently, with the advent of large-format tiles and embossed tiles, ceramic borders seem to have no place in tile catalogs and it is difficult to find them in stores. Few are those who place them in the bathroom anymore, since bathroom tiles now have a totally different style.

When to use borders?

Decorative borders are part of the rustic decoration of a home, therefore we will almost only use them when we want to give this aspect to our reform project.

To combine with rustic bathroom tiles they are a good option. Many rustic-style bathrooms are only veneered at half height. In this case, both the moldings and the colored borders will be a good opportunity to finish off the last tile finish and from there paint the wall.

Something similar happens in kitchens. In fact, it is the room for which the most borders are sold.

Why?

Almost all kitchens are covered with white tiles, which give light, are easy to clean and leave all the prominence to the kitchen furniture. However, using only white tiles for the kitchen can give a finish that is too minimalist, since surely the kitchen furniture is also white or in light tones. If we do not want this to happen and we want to give a touch of color to the kitchen, using the half-height decorative border can be an excellent option, as well as being cheap.

Another of the most common uses of borders is to use it on stairs. If it is not a very modern construction in which all the finishes follow the same lines, surely the decorative borders will give a color contrast.

Although you can give the products in this catalog that use, we recommend you buy porcelain stair borders. They are totally safe products to place outdoors, even to place as a terrace floor. Porcelain borders will be necessary, above all, in areas with a great thermal contrast in which they must resist winter frost.
