San Jose, Calif.–based Fireclay Tile collaborated with interior designer Kelly LaPlante to create the Runway Collection, a series of tiles inspired by iconic fashion designs such as the houndstooth pattern and corsets. The four patterns (Chaine Femme, shown) are available in the company’s 224 all-natural ceramic glaze colors and on two clay body types: the Debris Series Recycled Tile, a terra-cotta colored stone body containing more than 60% pre- and post-consumer recycled content; and the Vitrail Series Handmade Tile, a white, durable stoneware clay body. Fireclay Tile sources its materials from the San Francisco Bay Area. fireclaytile.com
