I’m baked from clay and sometimes glazed,
On walls and floors, I’m often praised.
From ancient Rome to modern style,
What kind of tile am I with flair and smile?
Though made of stone, I shine like glass,
I’m polished smooth and built to last.
Luxury in every grain,
What’s my fancy name again?
I’m rustic, earthy, red or brown,
Spanish roofs where I’m renown.
Fired from clay, rough to feel,
Guess my name with ancient zeal.
I’m formed in lava, cooled just right,
Dark and strong, a natural might.
Heavy duty, tough and sleek,
Which tile am I that builders seek?
I’m glassy, colorful, and quite small,
I make murals on a wall.
Little pieces, art compiled,
What’s my name when I’m styled
I’m man-made, not real stone,
But I look like I’m carved from bone.
Durable and easy to clean,
Guess this tile with a perfect sheen.
I mimic wood but water’s fine,
Lay me down in plank-like line.
I’m not timber, take a peek,
What’s this tile that’s faux but chic?
From ash and sand I am born,
Though fragile, I am not forlorn.
Reflecting light, I catch the eye,
What tile am I that seems to fly?
Made from stone, I grip the ground,
In outdoor spaces, I am found.
Slip-resistant, tough and grey,
What tile am I on the way?
With ridges raised and patterns bold,
In public spots, my form takes hold.
For safety’s sake, I help you see,
Which tactile tile can I be?
I’m vinyl’s cousin, smooth and flat,
Affordable and thin — imagine that!
On office floors, I often lie,
What kind of tile am I?
In hospitals and schools I dwell,
With soft footfalls and no smell.
I resist stains and echo less,
Which tile am I that brings no mess?
I’m eco-friendly, made from tree,
Soft beneath your foot, you see.
Warm and springy, nature’s style,
What tile am I that makes you smile?
From old wood I take my form,
I’m rustic, reclaimed, not the norm.
Though not a tile in classic tone,
In tile shapes I’m often shown.
Pressed together, firm and neat,
Laminate can’t take the heat.
I imitate with printed grace,
What tile is this that saves a space?
With metal sheen, I stand out bright,
In modern kitchens, I catch the light.
Sleek and shiny, cool to feel,
What tile gives a stainless appeal?
Sand and shells make up my face,
From ocean beds, I find my place.
Speckled, porous, soft, and pale,
Guess this tile that tells a tale.
I’m durable and built to fight,
I often come in black or white.
From bathrooms to a grand hotel,
What simple tile serves quite well?
I’m hex or square, a timeless trend,
From olden days, I still don’t end.
Black and white, I’m classic still,
What retro tile fits the bill?
Though not from earth, I’m engineered,
Resin and stone, nicely smeared.
For luxury at lower cost,
What composite tile is not lost?
I’m formed with heat, not made of clay,
Industrial floors are where I stay.
Non-porous and chemical strong,
Guess this tile that lasts so long.
A tile that’s thick and sharp in line,
In factories and kitchens, I shine.
Not for home but heavy wear,
Guess my name if you dare.
From ancient ruins to temple halls,
I’m found in intricate, storied walls.
Painted, patterned, full of pride,
What heritage tile am I worldwide?
Not quite stone, not quite clay,
Pressed together in a fancy way.
I hold up well to traffic stride,
What hybrid tile am I inside?
I’m shaped like fish scales or fans,
I make patterns with curvy plans.
In trendy homes, I decorate,
What stylish tile do people rate?
