In order to simplify selecting colors for our brick tiles, we've organized common color combinations into "Color mixes," each named for a town in Central PA.

We achieve each color mix through a unique combination of clay powders, wood ash, and other natural materials paired with specific kiln firing techniques. These combinations can achieve reds, browns, white, fire-scorched grays, and black. The addition of powders also ensures that every tile you receive is one-of-a-kind, handmade piece. Whether you are interested in a variety of brick colors or a single tone, you will find the right color combination below.

All color mixes are available on all styles of our brick tiles. The brick style in each picture below is listed in parentheses after the color mix description.

	Marietta Marietta color mix embodies the classic color combinations of Inglenook brick tiles. Wood ash and blackened tiles complement our standard brick red colors to achieve the ancient appearance of antique brick. (Wright's Ferry)
	Old Strasburg Named for the salmon tones of the brick homes in historic Strasburg, PA, the Old Strasburg color mix stays in the warm red tones of our standard brick tiles. (Lancaster Running Bond)
	Elizabethtown Elizabethtown color mix combines equal amounts of the standard brick red tone with the blackened look of our "fire-scorched" tiles. (Traditional Antique)
	Honeybrook Honeybrook combines the best of our brown, earthy tones. Brick tiles from gas kiln reduction firings are added to browned-standard bricks and sprinkled liberally with wood ash to achieve this antique look. (Summer Kitchen)
	Providence From the belly of our new gas kiln, Providence is the newest color mix for our brick tiles. With natural hues created by a reduction firing, the Providence is a rich spectrum of browns and earthy reds, burnt deeper along the bricks' edges as though exposed to open flame. Luminous white tones on several tiles in each box complete this historic look. (King Street)
	Mount Gretna Mount Gretna color mix contains the palettes of Providence color mix, but without the white tones for a deeper spectrum of earthy brick colors. (Rutherford)
	Savannah Savannah, as the only color mix named for a town outside central Pennsylvania, honors the stately brick homes and riverfront buildings of Savannah, GA. Savannah celebrates the chipping white paint adorning many of these tiles as well as those found in other areas of the South. Savannah is typically mixed with our standard brick red tones. (Lancaster Running Bond and Flemish Bond)
	Clinker The Clinker color mix originated for our 2x4" Flemish bond brick tile. Clinkers were used in brick buildings in the 18th and 19th century in the classic Flemish bond pattern. Originating from Dutch klinckaerd, the word literally means "something that clinks" (referring to the sound produced when one was struck). The brick firing process burned the ends of bricks closest to the heat creating very hard, darkened clinkers with a slight sheen caused by melting sand. Our Clinker Flemish Bond brick paver designs capture this burned effect for historic flemish bond patterns and other decorative brick veneer installations. They are typically mixed in with other Inglenook tile color mixes. (Lancaster Running Bond and Flemish Bond)
