Original Style or Olde English or DIY?
Who makes the best tiles? Quality , range, price? for a floor project.
I’m erring towards Original Style right now. (have used their tiles plus have their docs - have not used Olde English)
My research though tells me that the original Victorian tiles had a sharp straight edge rather than a cushion edge which the reproduction companies have now. So have any of you made the tiles out of full squares? To save money or get exactly what you want. I understand I’m looking at £125~180 per metre just for the tiles I want right now, for the small area (a porch) I’m looking at saving a chunk by using a simple pattern, cutting my own octagons and triangles and just buying special inserts from Original Style.
Am I being a mad cheapskate or would this work / look ok? Thx.

(incidentally Olde English are made in France? … which since William and his boys popped their clogs hasn’t been English for quite some time!)
