Decorating with Lebrillos in A Courtyard or Garden
The lebrillo wall is a unique twist on wall décor. Displaying lebrillos of different designs and sizes on one wall will certainly stop visitors in their tracks. It’s as though we’re displaying paintings or other artwork along a wall. Each lebrillo design is unique, drawing different reactions from viewers. And, depending on the light, the shimmering copper green of the lebrillo will offer a different atmosphere.

A Lavish Display
Perhaps one of the most stunning examples of a lebrillo wall is here in this courtyard in the home of New Zealand interior designer Veere Grenney in Tangier. These lebrillos serve as a delightful background along the loggia where the residents and guests take most meals in the hot summer months.
This courtyard blends Spanish, Moroccan and English influences seamlessly. The terracotta floor is sturdy Moroccan bejmat tile while the bench is decorated in lighter Moroccan zellige tiles. The textiles used for the cushions on the bench and the chairs are a nod to English Regency’s love of stripes. And above, a series of Moroccan lamps hang all along the length of the loggia.
A Considered Choice
A lebrillo wall enlivens an otherwise subdued corner of this classic Andalusian country home. The most popular design in all of Fajalauza history, our Ramita Fajalauza lebrillo remains a collector’s favorite. Here the home owners play with scale, displaying Ramita style in various sizes.
Such is the appeal of Ramita that we find it again in the same configuration in Sevilla's Casa Triana Luxury Suites on Betis Street, an avenue famous for its colorful homes and stunning views of San Telmo Palace and La Maestranza.
