The Metal Brick tile is an extraordinary creation, crafted by one of Mittsu’s esteemed Japanese Master Ceramicists. It combines traditional craftsmanship with modern innovation, resulting in tiles that exude timeless elegance and sophistication. Designed with a sleek rectangular form and a luxurious metallic finish, the Metal Brick tile transforms any space into a masterpiece of design, balancing heritage with contemporary aesthetics.
The Metal Brick collection is available in three distinguished finishes: Bronze (銅), Silver (銀), and Ibushi (いぶし). Each finish is imbued with its own character and charm, offering a versatile palette for different design visions. The Bronze finish (銅) radiates warmth and richness, with its deep, earthy tones and soft metallic luster that mimic the patina of aged copper. This finish evokes a sense of history and authenticity while maintaining a luxurious appeal. The Silver finish (銀), on the other hand, is sleek and modern, featuring a refined, brushed texture that catches the light beautifully. Its cool, contemporary tone creates a bright yet sophisticated ambiance, perfect for minimalist or cutting-edge designs. Finally, the Ibushi finish (いぶし) is inspired by the deep charcoal hues of traditional Japanese roof tiles. With its slightly rugged texture and subtle metallic undertones, Ibushi captures a sense of organic beauty and timeless tradition, making it a truly unique option for bold and refined interiors.
What makes the Metal Brick tiles truly remarkable is their intricate surface textures and finishes, which interact dynamically with light and shadow. The Bronze finish offers a smooth yet subtly velvety surface that reflects light in soft, warm tones, creating a welcoming and intimate atmosphere. The Silver finish features a clean, brushed metallic surface that enhances its modern, polished look, amplifying its brightness while maintaining elegance. The Ibushi finish stands apart with its tactile, slightly uneven texture that feels both natural and handcrafted, giving it a raw yet sophisticated aesthetic. These carefully designed textures ensure that every tile is not only visually captivating but also a tactile delight.
Whether used for accent walls, backsplashes, or exterior façades, the Metal Brick tiles elevate any space with their timeless beauty and versatility. Their ability to seamlessly blend into traditional Japanese-inspired designs, modern minimalist interiors, or even industrial-style settings makes them a favorite choice for architects and designers. Beyond their practical applications, the Metal Brick tiles are a celebration of Japanese artistry and craftsmanship, offering a lasting impression of elegance, depth, and authenticity in every project.

Authentic Japanese ceramic tiles for architectural and interior design projects.
Mittsu specialises in tiles made in Japan, selected for their surface depth, natural glaze variation and architectural character.
Unlike mass-produced alternatives, these tiles are not defined by printed patterns. Their colour and texture are created during firing in the kiln, producing subtle variation across the surface once installed.
Choosing a tile
Japanese tiles are typically selected for their material quality rather than a fixed visual pattern.
Variation between tiles is part of the character. Across a wall, this creates depth and movement rather than repetition.
Collections can be explored online, but most projects benefit from reviewing physical samples before final selection.
Samples
Samples allow colour, glaze movement and surface texture to be evaluated under real lighting conditions.
They are ordered directly through product pages using the sample option for each tile.
For professional projects, the Specifier Program provides access to complimentary samples and technical resources.
Availability and supply
Tiles may be supplied from local stock in the UK, Europe or UAE, sourced from Japan, or produced to order depending on the collection and project requirements.
Lead times vary accordingly and should be considered during the design stage where tiles form part of the architectural concept.
Working with Mittsu
Mittsu works directly with architects, interior designers and private clients across residential, hospitality and commercial projects.
Each enquiry is handled with a focus on material selection, availability and suitability for the intended application.
Japanese tiles are specified as materials, not finishes.
