Bathroom Tiles

Does anyone know where I can get about 8 (7in x 7in) tiles. 
See attached picture.
I don't know if they were original tiles or if they were added by the previous owner.
FT doesn't have them.
I relaced my toilet and that left the bare plywood around the base.

Thanks

If you can't find them, go with a contrasting tile as a "contrasting frame" around the toilet.

Just a point, unless you can find the same lot # tiles even the same pattern will be slightly different in tone.
Rip them off and buy all new.

I'd take a tile to a tile store so see if they can get close.

Agree.  Even if you could find some old lot of them, if they weren't the same glaze lot you'll likely notice they're slightly "off".  Better to do something that looks like an intentional design.

I would also have to go with contrasting rather than almost close enough.  I also learned to use an adhesive mix in the grout when retiling - it keeps the grout from popping out when the chassis is tweaked.

too bad about the tiles not being available now.
I too, want to replace some cracked ones in the bathroom and really don't want to go with contrasting tiles OR rip up the existing ones...

Pretty much the same for all tiles for "sticks and bricks" as well as RV's-- made in dye lots.
