Collectors, Dealers, and Souls Devoted to the Tile
D’Orey Tiles and Antiques is a reference in the field of antique tiles.
Founded in 2008 by Manuel D’Orey Capucho, D’Orey Tiles has become a true cultural landmark in the city of Lisbon. With nearly two decades of history, this family project has grown steadily. The year 2024 was a milestone in the company’s history with the opening of a 400 m² gallery spanning four floors on Rua da Misericórdia, located in the heart of Chiado, one of Lisbon’s most emblematic districts.
Meeting space
D’Orey Tiles is a meeting place between the past and the present, where each piece tells a story and contributes to preserving Portugal’s artistic and cultural heritage. The collection includes tiles from different eras, styles, and origins, carefully selected for collectors, architects, decorators, and lovers of traditional tilework.
Over the years, we have established partnerships with museums, cultural institutions, and architectural studios, collaborating on projects of great historical and artistic value. This network of collaborations reinforces our commitment to preserving and enhancing this material heritage, taking antique tile beyond national borders.
Unique atmospheres
An important pillar of the company is the creation of unique atmospheres using antique tiles, whether through the integration of period tile panels or through modern compositions using 18th-century tiles, known as patchwork, in strategically chosen spaces.
D’Orey Tiles also has several spaces dedicated to the preparation and preservation of tiles, as well as a warehouse for decorative stones and statues located in Manique, in the municipality of Sintra.
Beyond the commercial and curatorial aspect, we also promote awareness and cultural outreach activities through thematic exhibitions, guided tours, and specialized publications. We believe that sharing knowledge is a way to keep the tradition alive and inspire new generations to discover the timeless charm of tilework.
