Tiili collection

A new collection of extruded ceramic objects by Catalan designer and maker Xavier Mañosa

Tiili, or ‘brick’ in Finnish, is a collection of everyday ceramic objects – a vase, a candleholder and a wall hook – designed and made by ceramicist and designer Xavier Mañosa. Combining expert handicraft with industrial production, the pieces in the Tiili collection possess a clarity of purpose and form, serving their essential functions with grace.

Each Tiili product is unique, cut by hand from the extruded clay as it flows from the machine, then dried, fired and glazed.
Tiili Vase, Candleholder and Wall Hook are available in blue, green and white glaze.
The Tiili collection has a companionable domesticity, and an effortless, enduring beauty.
