Spanish Tile - Ludowici Barrel Tiles
Spanish tile appears to be the same thing as Barrel tiles that is why we will use both of these definitions of building materials for Spanish tile roofs. Nowadays it is produced 2 types of Spanish tile: one and two piece tiles. Mission spanish tiles (2 piece) are very equal to those widespread roofing materials in France, Italy and Spain. One piece tile is not so cheap as the previous one.
Tile Textures
Usually Ludowici's Mission is smooth. But depending on the taste of designer or homeowner or in order to match historic applications, texture could be changed. The reason for decreasing the glare of the texture is to make an accent on the color of the tile. Customers could apply any texture available to their tiles. Ludowici's manufacturers on a by-order basis hand-slush Spanish tiles to show all the specialties of the texture and its depth.
But, keep in mind, all finishes and alterations to texture of tiles are done only to those one which weren't processed by craftmen.
