# Jubilee roof tiles

Jubilee roof tiles are part of Tudor’s Traditional range. Two colours of Kent sand are applied to each tile before firing, which gives a weathered brown and black tone in keeping with handmade tiles of old.

## What Jubilee looks like

Jubilee has a weathered brown and black tone. Because every tile is pressed by hand, no two are quite the same shade, so a Jubilee roof reads as one colour with a gentle, natural variation rather than a flat finish.

## How Jubilee tiles get their colour

Two colours of Kent sand are applied to each tile before firing. Fired, they give a weathered, random mix of brown and black.

## Why roofers mix Jubilee

Used with other colours, Jubilee gives a roof more of an instantly aged look, which is why it is often blended in on extensions and repairs that need to sit next to an old roof. [Matching old roof tiles](https://www.tudorrooftiles.co.uk/matching-old-roof-tiles/).
