Natural stone facade and wall at a contemporary home

Company

Since 1980 we have made terracotta, stone and mosaic in Molins de Rei, near Barcelona.

Since 1980

A history of earth and craft

Tercocer was founded in 1980 in Molins de Rei, on the banks of the Llobregat, where the clay of the valley has fed the kilns for generations. We began as a small terracotta workshop and, over time, have worked with architects and interior designers on natural materials made for real projects.

More than forty years later we are still in the same place. We still work fired earth, natural stone and hand-laid mosaic: each piece keeps the character of its origin and the mark of the person who finished it.

The craft

Three materials, one craft

We work with three families of natural material. Terracotta is extruded and pressed from Llobregat clay, then kiln-fired until its earthy tone is set. Mediterranean stone —slate, travertine, quartzite— is selected at the quarry and finished piece by piece. Mosaic is composed by hand, tessera by tessera, so that no two compositions are ever alike.

  • Hand-laid mosaic
  • Piece-by-piece finish

Values

What guides us when we make

Authentic material
We work only with materials of true origin: earth, stone and mineral. No imitations: colour and texture come from the material itself, not from a coating.
Closeness
Local raw material and low-impact processes. Clay and stone from the surrounding area cut transport and keep the region’s know-how alive.
Durability
Pieces made to age well: frost-proof, anti-slip and suitable for interior, exterior and façade. Material that lasts decades, not seasons.

Made in Molins de Rei

From the workshop to your project

From Molins de Rei we work with architecture studios, interior designers and homeowners. We help you choose material, format and finish, send samples and technical sheets, and make bespoke series when the project calls for it.
