The line draws on some of Aram’s well-known existing collections; Molten, Botanical Leaf, and Gotham, translating their distinct aesthetic into a series of high quality decorative ceramic tiles and liners. Each pattern is glazed in metallic bronze, silver, or gloss white. A match made in design heaven, if you ask me!
Artistic Tile, a leading luxury tile and stone brand, recently launched its first collaborative collection of decorative tile in partnership with Michael Aram, America’s premier designer of fine jewelry and decorative objects for the home.
The Michael Aram Collection will be carried by Artistic Tile showrooms and select dealers nationwide.
The relationship between Artistic Tile and Michael Aram stretches more than 20 years, to the first encounter between CEOs, when Michael Aram called on Nancy Epstein’s original Tenafly, NJ showroom. Over the years, both have enjoyed success as designers and entrepreneurs, and today share many of the same clientele.
“Clients often come into our showrooms asking if we have any tile to match their Michael Aram homeware,” Nancy said, “For years, we searched for the perfect metal tile material, but none met our standards.”
When Artistic Tile pitched the idea of a joint design effort to Aram, he was excited to collaborate, having long wanted to design tile for his own home.
“I have known Nancy for many years and have always admired the Artistic Tile brand, not only as a customer, but as a designer as well,” says Michael Aram. “They are the perfect partner for us as we are both focused on delivering the best in design, craftsmanship and customer service.”

The line draws on some of Aram’s well-known existing collections; Molten, Botanical Leaf, and Gotham, translating their distinct aesthetic into a series of high quality decorative ceramic tiles and liners. Each is glazed in metallic bronze, silver, or gloss white, and all are manufactured in Japan. Solid field tiles complement the decorative tiles, using the same glazes to achieve a refined, seamless effect. The tiles clearly reflect their roots in Aram’s original collections, while achieving a refinement unique to their new format.
The collaboration creates an exciting synergy, infusing Aram’s high-style designs into the very finest ceramic tile available. It harnesses the expertise of both designers for a product that’s totally unique, but familiar to admirers of Aram’s work.
