Vee Brick Colors
 Marion
Ceramics' Vee Brick products are available in a broad spectrum
of beautiful colors which are all compatible for color coordinating
and/or contrasting design statements. Our palette of colors includes
eight clear tones and one ironspot to make up our Vee Brick Classics
colors. There are five other colors that make up our Vee Brick
Rustics line. The Vee Brick Rustics products are naturally flashed
using reduction firing techniques perfected over decades - no
artificial look that often comes with chemical flashes. The hard
fired colors of our Vee Brick are colorfast and will not fade
with exposure to sunlight and weather as will occur with pigmented
cementitious thin brick. Marion Ceramics takes the extra care
required to properly formulate each body and to double mix during
grinding in order to maintain color consistency.
Significantly, Marion offers factory blending of its Vee Brick
to accommodate designers wanting the variegated color ranges of
used brick which are so popular for residential thin brick applications.
Architects can specify the percentage of each color to be included
for unique blends to produce any desired effect.
Vee Brick Classics
Vee Brick Classics colors have been developed over many years
to fill the needs of homeowners and thin brick users. Our Vee
Brick product line is especially popular with architects and designers
because care is taken to produce a wide range of attractive colors
for unmatched and unlimited design possibilities.
The first in the Vee Brick Classics line are our two reds: Plantation
Red (200), which is exceptionally vivid and clear; and Havana
Red (250), having deep reddish brown tones which match many residential
face brick. Following those, we offer a chocolate brown color
called Gunstock Brown (410), then introduce light burning raw
materials to perfect our buff color Chino (600) and our terra-cotta
Sunlit Earth (610). Sunlit Earth is also the base body used to
produce our Indian Copper (615) ironspot color.
The balance of our Vee Brick Classics colors consist of three
of the most beautiful architectural brick colors available including
our tan Sahara (820) and two grays: Academy Grey (760) and Cobblestone
(510)
Our exceptional range of colors has proven to be especially appealing
when both flashed and unflashed colors are blended.
 
Vee Brick Rustics
All of Marion Ceramics' Vee Brick Rustics colors are natural gas
flashed and made with the same body formulas used in the matching
clear tone colors. The resulting variegated tones of these perimeter
flashed colors make for a special warmth and rustic feel that
can only be achieved with natural materials.
Our two reds are flashed to produce the Tavern Flash (300) and
Magnum Flash (255) colors. Our brown flash is called Colonial
Blend (440). The Sundance (655) is made with our buff body and
Tangier (675) color is fired from our terra cotta body.
All of our colors are compatible with similarly colored residential
face brick and work well with architectural and commercial projects
using matching and/or contrasting face brick or other facing materials.
