These Imperial Blend Clay Red Bricks are archetypal of Georgian period handmade red bricks. They are imperial sized brick (68 x 230 x 110 mm) and are manufactured using traditional hand-thrown techniques. Aesthetically, they offer a period look and feel, which is derived from their traditional manufacturing process (which is the same method that would have been used to make bricks in the 18th and 19th Centuries). Therefore, they are ideal as a cost-effective alternative to reclamation bricks when working on period restorations and historically based construction projects.
They are ideal for garden borders and edging, decorative paving elements, landscaping features and other period and historic applications within your garden's design. These traditional red building bricks are also suitable as a facing clay masonry unit for internal or external use, load bearing or non load bearing masonry structures.
Imperial Blend Clay Red Bricks have a lovely balance of red, orange and soft brown colouring combined with random creases (aka "smiles"), residual sand from the "sand struck" hand-thrown moulds and kiln soot/coal spotted. They are certified BS EN 771-1 and have an F2 Frost Resistance rating.

Georgian Rustic Red are mostly a soft red, orange and soft brown bricks in the mix. They are dappled buff/yellow "sand-struck" residue from the moulding process and flecks of black coal spotting and soot from firing. Each brick also has its own distinctive creases (aka "smiles") from the handmade manufacturing process, which when combined with the other elements means each brick is unique and packed with character.
Each brick offers a unique finish with differing creases/smiles and sand-struck buff/yellow residue that result from the handmade production process.
We’ve selected "red rubber" style clays that closely mimic traditional Georgian clays used in brick making for these red bricks.
