Used Garden Tiles For Sale on 1stDibs

Find a variety of used garden tiles available on 1stDibs. Frequently made of ceramic, metal and stone, all used garden tiles available were constructed with great care. Used garden tiles have been made for many years, and versions that date back to the 18th Century alongside those produced as recently as the 21st Century. Used garden tiles are generally popular furniture pieces, but Victorian, Art Nouveau and Art Deco styles are often sought at 1stDibs. Used garden tiles have been a part of the life’s work for many furniture makers, but those produced by Devres, Gilliot and Juliette Belarti are consistently popular.

How Much are Used Garden Tiles?

Used garden tiles can differ in price owing to various characteristics — the average selling price at 1stDibs is $1,500, while the lowest priced sells for $2 and the highest can go for as much as $53,632.

Finding the Right building-garden for You

Choosing the right antique or vintage building and garden elements can prove pivotal when you’re working to beautify any room in your home or just put the finishing touches on a garden or other outdoor area.

It takes time and effort to improve your outdoor space or merely to bring an air of tranquility to an indoor area set aside for private relaxation or gathering with friends. The good news is that 1stDibs can help.

To introduce a sense of timelessness to a back patio or interior common area, choose cast-stone statues or sculptural busts for a dose of drama or select ornate architectural elements such as corbels, plaques or panels made of marble or iron. Elsewhere, find a focal point in your living room and create a “feature wall” by bringing pops of color into a corner with handmade antique ceramic tiles.

It helps when design changes like these have a practical upside too.

Victorian cast-iron stair treads hearken back to a time when adding decorative details to your property was a priority. While lending an attractive appearance to an exterior staircase, these safeguards render the steps slip-resistant for those coming and going. And as one good stylistic choice usually leads to another, pairing your sophisticated treads with a coupling of 19th-century hand-forged andirons would be a thoughtful, durable touch for any courtyard or comfortable lounge space, be they intended for an indoor fireplace or a patio firepit.

Where the garden is concerned, any sophisticated garden ornaments you select should work with nature, not against it. Wrought-iron garden gates will simply refuse to be relegated to the background. Instead, they’ll draw attention to your painstakingly sculpted hedges and colorful flora. When paired with a sparse arrangement of other tasteful additions, such as a stone planter, garden stool or other welcoming pieces of outdoor seating, the effect can be transformative.

On 1stDibs, find a sprawling collection of antique garden furniture and architectural elements that meet every need. Our offerings include everything from sculptural bathroom fixtures to flooring ideas to pedestals and columns designed in a variety of styles and much more.

Questions About Used Garden Tiles
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    The best type of paint to use on tile is a special epoxy paint or designated tile paint that allows the paint to securely stick to the tile, while being durable and washable. Painted tiles can add a pop of color or serve as a way to update your space. Browse a range of tiles on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertOctober 5, 2021
    The type of tile to use in the fireplace is a matter of choice. Usually, fire-resistant tiles are used if the heat source is not close to the wall surface, then most types of tiles would be safe. However, if the distance is less then porcelain is advised. Porcelain is similar to fire-resistant bricks in that it will absorbg the heat and not transfer it to the surrounding areas. On 1stDibs, you can find a variety of tile options to choose from.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMay 5, 2023
    The type of tile that was used in the 1920s was primarily ceramic. Many shapes were available, including basketweave, penny round, pinwheel, square and subway. Hexagon tiles, however, which are still on trend, have been in use in bathrooms since at least the early 1900s. The choice of hexagonal tiles is believed to have been tied to cleanliness, as the small pieces could stand up to aggressive cleaning and could be easily replaced if needed. On 1stDibs, shop a collection of tiles from some of the world's top sellers.
