Pareidolia (/pærɪˈdoʊliə/ parr-i-DOH-lee-ə) is the tendency for incorrect perception of an object, pattern, or meaning known to the observer, such as seeing shapes in clouds, seeing faces in inanimate objects or abstract patterns, or hearing hidden messages in music.

This collaboration is unique even within our line of collaborative tile. Each of these incredible tiles is created in our Petaluma, California studio and woodfired by world renowned master potter, Simon Levin in Mill Creek, Wisconsin in his Anagama kiln. During the firing process the wood ash and vapor travel throughout the kiln imparting the tile with it’s unique flashing and patterns. These fully vitrified tiles yield beautiful variations, are durable, and great for kitchens, bathrooms, fireplaces, and floors with light to moderate traffic.

From the Artist

“The woodfire process produces one of a kind seductive surfaces. Each tile is a record of the flame that moves through the kiln, depositing glaze and evoking color. I have been in love with this process since 1990 and have worked to share my excitement with others through hand made pottery. I have recently developed a technique that allows me to fire a limited amount of high quality wall or floor tile that brings a unique look and feel to your home.

Made from specially developed porcelains and stonewares no two tiles are the same. This is my eye and expertise as an artist culminating in these captivating surfaces. These hand made tile were fired in a custom built a kiln and a labor intensive process. A lot of love had gone into this product and I am pleased to be working with FLM ceramics to introduce you to an exciting limited line of tile.”
