Moon Tiles: A Masterpiece of Lunar Inspiration

Introducing Moon, a remarkable creation from one of Japan’s most skilled Master Ceramicists. Inspired by the waxing and waning phases of the moon, these tiles are crafted to evoke the natural beauty and rhythm of the night sky. Each tile is meticulously formed with a 55mm diameter, and its design features a gradual rise from 6mm to 13mm, creating a subtle three-dimensional effect. This unique shape allows light to dance across the surface, casting gentle shadows that shift with the time of day, giving the installation a dynamic, living quality.

The surface of each tile is glazed to perfection, offering a refined finish that blends a smooth texture with a delicate sheen. The subtle speckling effect adds further depth, while the naturally curved form invites touch, adding not just visual appeal but also a tactile experience. The distinctive rise and fall of the tile create a sculptural effect that interacts with light in an elegant and captivating way, making every installation truly one-of-a-kind.

What sets Moon tiles apart is their ability to create a striking visual rhythm. Whether arranged in flowing patterns or as bold accents, the tiles can transform a space into a harmonious work of art, reflecting the quiet beauty of the lunar cycle. Their timeless design transcends trends, offering a sense of refined elegance that elevates any environment—from high-end hospitality projects to modern residential spaces.

These tiles are more than a decorative material; they are a statement piece, blending craftsmanship, artistry, and nature into one extraordinary design. Moon tiles offer an opportunity to create spaces that feel alive, with depth and character that only grow more fascinating over time.

Moon is supplied in boxes of 300 individual tiles. The manufacturer has 4 suggested layouts, the consumption ranges from 289 > 378 tiles per square meter.

A sample is a single tile mounted on a card.

Superclean Grout is an Anti-Mould Grout from master ceramicists, INAX of Japan.

This grout has been developed to exceed the exacting demands for cleanliness and hygiene of the Japanese people.

Moisture and dirt penetrate into conventional cement grout, causing mould growth on the surface. Superclean Grout transforms the property of grout particles to hydrophobic, dramatically reducing the penetration of moisture into the grout and preventing the grout from holding dirt and growing mould.

It's one of the few available in Europe that passes the high standard of Anti-Stain, Anti-Bacterial and Anti-Fungal of ISO Standard - ISO22196. 

Shipping & Returns

We offer three main shipping categories: Stock from Japan, Stock from Europe, and Samples.

European Stock

These tiles make up a smaller portion of our range but account for most of our sales by volume.

Stock is held in Germany and the UK, with availability clearly marked. Unless otherwise stated, stock is located in Germany.

To ensure safe delivery, we only offer pallet deliveries for these tiles.

Orders are shipped same-day or next-day, depending on confirmation time.

Delivery time varies by location but is typically within 7–10 days.

Our website provides clear shipping options and costs before requiring payment.

If you’re in a remote location, please contact us in advance to confirm shipping rates.

We typically have six shipments per year.

Once dispatched, delivery follows the same timeline as Dedicated Sea Freight.

UK orders are transported to our UK warehouse before final delivery.


Samples

All sample orders are managed by our UK warehouse.

Shipping via DPD Next Day Service (UK).

European deliveries take 3–5 days.


Returns

We accept returns for bulk stock items (not samples). However, due to the high cost of return shipping, we encourage you to make an informed decision before ordering.

Welcome to Mittsu – Your Source for Authentic Japanese Tiles

Japanese tiles are renowned for their beauty, quality, and craftsmanship. If a stunning tiled bathroom led you here, you might now be feeling a little overwhelmed by the choices—but don’t worry, we’re here to help!


Who is Mittsu?

Mittsu is a privately owned company specialising in authentic Japanese tiles. We only sell tiles made in Japan, ensuring superior quality and craftsmanship.

Unlike other businesses offering “Japanese-style” tiles, our products are genuinely made in Japan, reflecting the rich heritage and artistry that define Japanese ceramics. Learn more about what makes Japanese tiles special.


How to Choose the Right Tile

Box Sizes & Pricing

Since we source tiles from multiple Japanese manufacturers, box sizes vary—ranging from 0.3m² to 2m². To keep things transparent, each tile page displays:

Price per square meter (for easy comparison).

Price per box (as we only sell full boxes).

For example, our Koyohen Border tile costs more per box than Ka-Bu, but it covers 1.8m² per box compared to Ka-Bu’s 1m², making it a lower cost option per square meter.


Stock Availability

We keep around 50 tile variations in our German warehouse, ready for immediate shipping.

Some of our most popular tiles are also available in the UK warehouse—look for products labeled (UK Stock) when ordering from the UK.

Despite our best efforts, demand can sometimes outpace supply, so if a tile is out of stock, feel free to contact us for alternatives or restock timelines.


Pre-Orders (Stock from Japan)

For tiles not currently in our European stock, we offer two shipping options:

1. Dedicated Sea Freight – Your order is shipped individually as soon as it’s ready.

2. Shared Sea Freight – Your order is combined with others for more cost-effective shipping.

Our website allows you to order tiles from Japan with the understanding that shipping times vary. If you’re interested in a specific tile that’s out of stock, please contact us, and we’ll be happy to assist.


Samples

While we strive for accurate photography, tile colors may appear differently on screens. We highly recommend ordering samples to ensure you’re getting exactly what you expect.

You can browse our sample collection or search by tile name and select the sample option.

We have over 400 sample variations ready to ship.

Sample orders within the UK are shipped via DPD Next Day Service, with European deliveries taking 3–5 days.


Why Do We Charge for Samples?

1. To minimize waste – Charging a small fee prevents unnecessary orders.

2. To offset costs – Sample stocking and processing are expensive.

However, when you place a tile order for your project, we will refund the cost of up to 5 samples upon request.


Who We Serve

We cater to everyone—from private homeowners needing a single box for a kitchen backsplash, to leading architectural firms designing luxury hotels.

If you work in construction or tile specification, please email us at sales@mittsugroup.com.

We ship all over Europe and can assist customers in other locations upon request.

Unfortunately, due to contractual reasons, we cannot ship to North America.
