There are a number of companies that offer standard lines of
reproduction tiles, while others focus on custom work. Some
new lines of reproduction tile attempt to be exact replicas of
original tiles from the late-19th and early-20th century, while
others are modern interpretations or adaptations of traditional
designs, and may not be appropriate as replacement tiles in a
preservation or restoration project. For additional sources see:
