Brick Slips
Slim. Expressive. Handcrafted. Terracotta brick slips by Cotto Rustic – for wall surfaces with character.
Material & Craftsmanship
Cotto Rustic terracotta brick slips are created through the same handcrafted process as all our products – deliberately slow, without industrial acceleration. Each piece is shaped by hand from natural clay, air-dried, and finally fired in wood-fired kilns. The slender format reveals its full effect on wall surfaces – through rhythm, joint pattern, and the material’s vivid surface.
The result is not a standardized product, but a material with its own signature. Subtle nuances in surface, tone, and edges are an expression of true craftsmanship – making each piece unmistakably unique.
Natural material without additives
As a pure natural material, the brick slips are made exclusively from clay and water. No additives, fully recyclable and biodegradable. Their properties arise from the material itself – not from subsequent treatment.
Application & Areas of Use
Terracotta brick slips are designed for wall applications – both in interior spaces and on façades. The slender, elongated format is not merely an aesthetic choice: it introduces dynamism, rhythm, and depth that flat claddings cannot achieve.

Surface treatment
The surface significantly influences the character and visual impact of the handcrafted terracotta brick slips. Variations in texture, feel, and appearance arise from the artisanal production process and are an integral part of the material.
