CERAMICA

little has changed fundamentally in the tile setting trade. The most notable historic event

that comes to mind is the invention of cement mortar by the Romans.

New methods and materials have, of course, been introduced, but tile setting remains a

hand-operated, labor-intensive process, and it's not likely to change soon. In an age when

"downsizing" and mass layoffs are commonplace, tile setters have achieved true job

security, working their tails off in the process.
