Vintage pink unglazed porcelain ceramic bathroom floor tiles – pinwheel pattern. Could there be anything more luscious to find in a mid-century home?
Upon request, Colvin has sent in a close up of the floors in his pink and gray vintage bathroom. It really is so lovely – notice the slight shading of the dot within the pink 1×2’s. Ahhhhhh. Thank you, Raymond!

I’m looking for vintage tile from the 20’s. I have a broken soap dish I am trying to replace with anything that will match the color and size. 4X4. I have been searching google for hours. There was a vintage bathroom place that aleays came up close to the top of the list and now it seems to be gone. Anyone know what it could be. I can’t remember the name. I’d send you a picture of my cool bathroom but I don’t see how to attach a pic.

I have the exact same, unglazed tile in our pink bathroom. I fear it has been waxed over the years because no matter how much I scrub it just looks DINGY! What is the best way to care for this tile? Should I try a wax stripper on it??

Hi Angela, I am not an expert on this and suggest you find an expert. Note this recent story as well: https://retrorenovation.com/2016/05/02/understanding-potential-lead-hazards-old-porcelain-enamel-bathtubs-sinks-ceramic-tile-any-age/

oh so cool… Where can I find replacement tiles like these?
I have all rose pink pinwheel pattern in my 1952 bathroom and need to replace about 6 pinwheel patterns to fix our damaged floor.
Thanks!

Hi Julia, I don’t have a source for old tiles like this except for vintage (start several Saved Searches with various word combos on ebay). Alternatively: Can you “steal” some from another spot in the bathroom? And if you do Be Safe/Renovate Safe https://retrorenovation.com/renovate-safe/
