What kind of tile is Brickstone Red 2x10?
We stock Brickstone Red 2x10 as porcelain in a brick shape, 2x10. It reads red. Brickstone Ivory Brick 2x18 and Ivory Porcelain Tile 2x10 sit in the same style family if you want to compare. Porcelain is ceramic fired denser and harder, so it absorbs almost no water and holds a cut edge around an outlet.

Sizes
Brickstone Red 2x10 is made in a single size, 2x10. That makes layout simple — what you see in the sample is the module you get across the whole wall.

Planning the wall
What Brickstone Red 2x10 works out to on your wall, from its own published size.
| Size (inches) | Pieces per 10 sq ft | Grout line per sq ft |
|---|---|---|
| 2×10 | 72 | 7.2 ft |
Arithmetic on the published size; a straight grid layout. Herringbone and other patterns cut more pieces.
Brickstone Red 2x10 is a 2×10 module, which works out to about 72 pieces for each 10 square feet you cover.
The spec sheet lists it as pressed rather than rectified: the edges are as they left the press, slightly softer, and the joints are set a little wider to suit.
Counts are before cuts — outlets, window returns and the ends of a run all take pieces. The install itself, from wall prep to caulk, is on our backsplash installation page.

Brickstone Red 2x10 or Brickstone Red 5x10?
Brickstone Red 2x10 and Brickstone Red 5x10 are easy to confuse on a sample board: they share the same material, collection, style, glaze type, PEI rating, shade-variation rating, certifications, edge and color listing. What separates them:
- Brickstone Red 2x10 is made in 2x10; Brickstone Red 5x10 in 5X10. On 10 square feet of wall that is about 72 pieces of Brickstone Red 2x10 against about 29 of Brickstone Red 5x10, and 7.2 against 3.6 feet of grout line per square foot.
- Measured off each swatch, Brickstone Red 2x10 reads #B5927E (mid-light, warm) and Brickstone Red 5x10 reads #B68A71 (mid-light, warm), so Brickstone Red 2x10 sits about as light as Brickstone Red 5x10 on the wall.
What to expect once it is installed
The ratings that decide whether the finished wall matches the sample.
Shade variation: V4 — substantial variation
This is the dramatic end of the scale: two pieces from the same box can look unrelated. Order it all at once, from one run, with the overage included, and dry-lay the wall before a single piece is set.
Wear rating: PEI 4
On the industry abrasion scale of 1 to 5, this one sits at 4 — residential floors plus light commercial traffic, so it will outlast the kitchen around it.
Certifications
What it holds: Greenguard Gold · USGBC/LEED. Gold is not a marketing tier — it caps what the material is allowed to give off indoors, measurably lower than the base certification. It earns LEED credit as well, where a project is counting them.
What to put next to it
Built from the color we measured off Brickstone Red 2x10 itself, not from its name.
Forget the name for a moment. The swatch measures #B5927E — mid-light and warm — which puts it nearest Warm Speckled Stone (Granite) in our pairing data. There is genuine color in it, which means the room will organize itself around this rather than the other way around.
Cabinets
- Olive Drab Green — Olive cabinets and warm stone share the same earthen yellow base, so the kitchen reads as one grown thing rather than parts from a catalog.. Against this surface it is a step darker — enough separation to read as two materials current
- Dusty Blue — Warm stone keeps dusty-blue cabinets from tipping nursery — the sandy flecks pull the blue toward coastal-grownup, and the busy surface hides crumbs between wipe-downs.. Against this surface it is close in weight, so the two will blend rather than contrast current
- Warm White / Ivory — traditional comfort; undertones agree. Against this surface it is a step lighter, which lifts the surface without washing it out solid
- Espresso — the 2008 set — honest but aging; modernize with slab tops instead. Against this surface it is much darker than this surface, so the tile reads as the light element dated

Questions about Brickstone Red 2x10
Answered from this product’s own spec sheet and our measurement of it.
What size is Brickstone Red 2x10?
Brickstone Red 2x10 comes in one size, 2x10. One module across the whole wall keeps the layout simple — what you approve in the sample is what you get.
Where can I use Brickstone Red 2x10?
Its maker rates it for flooring. We hold to that rating when we quote — installing outside it is how a warranty claim gets denied.
Will the tiles match the sample I saw?
Brickstone Red 2x10 is rated V4 — substantial variation, by design. Two pieces side by side can look like different products. Order from one production run, buy the overage up front, and insist on a dry lay. This is the rating that generates complaints when nobody was told.
Can Brickstone Red 2x10 go on a floor?
Yes, comfortably. At PEI 4 it is rated past residential floors into light commercial traffic, so it will outlast the kitchen around it.
What color is Brickstone Red 2x10, really?
We measured its own swatch at #B5927E — mid-light and warm. It carries real color rather than reading as a neutral, so it will drive the rest of the room more than a white tile would. Names are marketing; that number is what the camera saw.
Does Brickstone Red 2x10 need sealing?
No. Porcelain is vitrified almost to zero water absorption. The tile itself never needs sealing; cement grout still benefits from it.
