Motawi polychrome tiles are produced in the ancient tile-making process known as ceunca style. "Cuenca" means "basin" and also happens to be a town and a province of Spain. The term refers to the small raised lines of clay that make up the "basins" into which we put our glazes. Each glaze is pooled by hand into its area with a glaze bulb. The cuenca process is very similar to the cloisonne jewelry-making process. Every tile is hand-glazed and each is unique. Other types of Motawi Tile are "field" and "relief." --Motawi Tileworks
