We are reconfiguring the island in our kitchen and need some of the original floor tile which is discontinued.
The tile we are looking for is Orchid Ceramics by Corona name Otawa color Sand/Arena Our house was built in December 2009. If you have any of this tile, I would like to buy it. Photos of the tile and the box label are attached. |

OP, if you do not get any replies, there are several discontinued tile sites on the internet. You have all of the necessary information to do a search, with any luck you will find some.

Check with the local providers - I’d start with The Floor Shoppe, they did & still do work for the developer. If you find them use where less seen. The color, even if you get the same lot # which is unlikely, will be much different than what’s been used and exposed to light & wear & tear. Last edited by scubawva; 06-20-2024 at 07:25 AM. |

I've tried all of the suggestions.
Floor tile is 16.4 inches square. I will take any quantity. |

Use any tile, then cover the whole floor with Luxury Vinyl Plank. Or create an artistic filler with small mosaic tiles.

If you contact the Villages warrenty number, and your house is relatively new, then it is possible that they could still have it in stock, or tell you where they get it from? Each home is assigned an individual builder. He/ She is given plans and they are in charge of your construction. IF you trace him down, he would have a record of the items, and would know if it is still being used in The Villages....(There are about 12-15 contractors that work solely for The Villages.) Sort of a long shot, but It worked for me once.

If you can’t find it. Then it’s time to consider a new flooring. Let the wife or girlfriend help you - I’m sure they would be excited to change out a flooring and add their own touch to the house. |

A few years ago, I cut out a matching pattern in the area (every fourth and fifth tile). and 'filled in' with new earthtone tiles. No time wasted looking for something that might not be available. Floor looked 'original' |

This is a great idea. Putting down new luxury vinyl is also a good idea in a 2009 home. We put luxury vinyl in ours and it’s better than tile in my wife’s opinion and that is all that counts. Good luck.
