These patterns consist of the famous Lily flower (commonly known as "Fleur De Lis"), the Spider, the Ox Head, the Ram, and many others. The corner motive designs in historical tiles dating from 1590 to the twentieth century are larger than most reproductions you will find today. We choose to keep some of our designs with the larger corner motif designs, although it is more time consuming to create. We believe the additional effort makes a definite statement when applied to a wall or ceiling. ### Services Provided - At Designer Tiles we specialize in creating decorated tiles with a refined and delicate quality.

I had miscounted the tile count and had to order an other batch it got shipped quickly. I was missing à tile and the shipped send me the missing tile and 1 extra. Great seller very good product as you can see on the project I had to do !!!! I higly recomend. **★★★★ — sharris6978, March 2016** > I purchased tiles online from J Roza as I could not find anything comparable from a Canadian supplier. I had dificulty placing my order initially as I had accessed a website they were no longer using. When i finally got through to J Roza, the tiles were delivered promptly and in perfect condition. Although the cost of the tiles was not unreasonable, shipping costs, duties and taxes turned them into a high end item. I would certainly have preferred to buy locally, but the simple elegance of the handpainted blue and white tiles convinced me to bite the bullet on the price. I was not disappointed. **★★★★★ — mimiandboys, April 2014** > I ordered hand painted tiles for our kitchen backsplash. The tiles are lovely and just what I had wanted. I ordered over 200 tiles, and they arrived in perfect condition due to conscientious packaging. **★★★★★ — melissaholder, May 2013** > My HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION goes to John Roza's work. His tiles are beautiful, one-of-a-kind pieces that I will treasure forever. They have made my home unique.. added a style that no one else has. Each of the different tiles have so much history that went into their making & it is such a conversation starter for my guests. The real gold in the tiles I chose bring out the color of paint in my kitchen & bathroom. I am very happy with the durability of the tiles. In three months they have not gotten scratched or damaged in any way. They are easy to clean. Thank you, John Roza, for creating something so beautiful, unique & user friendly for me to have in my home to enjoy for a long time to come! > > Melissa Holder ## Selected projects - [Ceiling Tiles](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/ceiling-tiles-pj-vj~225031) - Location: Not specified - [Cape Dutch](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/cape-dutch-pj-vj~222093) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 2 - [Lone Star of Texas and Oxen in 24 Karat Gold](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/lone-star-of-texas-and-oxen-in-24-karat-gold-pj-vj~281047) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 1 [See all 3 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/artists-and-artisans/john-roza-pfvwus-pf~1669808570) ## Ideabooks - [Wish List](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/68231302/list/wish-list) — 1 idea - [Delft Style Tiles](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/9060787/list/delft-style-tiles) — 23 ideas [See all 2 ideabooks](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/users/jrozainc) ## Community Q&A **Q: background color of tile** *(in Product Questions)* Is it a white white or a cream color A: Hi, the tile is white, but not an ultra bight white. Hope this helps. **Q: How does it hang? What type of mount required?** *(in Product Questions)* Is there an image to see the back to discern how to hang it on a wall? A: Hi, these are meant to be installed like any other tile installation that you would do for example, a back splash. If you want to hang it like a picture, you would need to have a frame made at a frame shop. Hope this answers your question. **Q: Backsplash?** *(in Product Questions)* I want to use this rose in turquoise for a row of backsplash over a small bathroom sink. Do you have suggestions on how I can trim or edge it on the top or sides? A: Dear Yvonne, Lowes or Home Depot sell "ceramic pencil trim pieces" to finish off an edge of a tile. You may have to special order the color you want. Some people who purchased our rose tiles have used a frame shop and than mounted the tiles on the wall just like a picture frame. This scenario will give you a wider selection of coordinating colors to match the Turquoise Rose. **Q: can this tile be used on a shower wall? can it withstand water?** *(in Product Questions)* I am re-tiling a shower with white tile and looking for a black accent. I would like to know if the black roses are appropriate for shower wall? will the rose tile withstand water? A: yes absolutely, these tiles can be used on all surfaces wet or dry. These tiles are fired to 1950 degrees Fahrenheit **Q: Decor** *(in Product Questions)* Can we hang them in a room on the wall A: yes you can, clients have taken these roses to a frame shop and had them professionally mounted in a frame. **Q: Expected delivery time frame?** *(in Product Questions)* I am interested in purchasing 150 of these tiles for a client. From the time we place the order, what is the current expected lead time on their arrival? A: Thank you for contacting us, if you order today the tiles will ship out within two days, delivery time, 2 to 3 days, depending on your location. Hope this helps. --- *Source: Houzz professional profile. Reflects the profile as of 2026-09-05.*
