called Banco de Materiais where they salvage tiles and other materials
from buildings that are to be demolished or modified.
It's a great place where you can get an idea of the various tile patterns
- I don't need to mention that fact that my favourite where the blue and white ones....

I was looking at my own photos of Porto on the weekend : ) It's such an inspiring place and these tiles are absolutely beautiful. I can see why you were drawn to the blue ones.
Hello Donatella,
This is amazing. Simple love the blue/white ones too, like kasuri of indigo/white.
I had a hard time restraining myself from taking too many pics of tiles!
And there's nothing like blue and white together, I just can't resist...;-)
Hi, I'm in Porto at the moment and would love to buy a few tiles. Doesn't sound like this place sells them, is that right? Any idea where I could buy some? Thanks!

Hi Jess,
Wow, I hope you're having a good time! No, this place onloy provides tiles to residents, but I found a little bric a brac shop selling some tiles. If I remember well it's near the Banco de Materiais, in an alley off Rua de Cedofeita, probably Travessa de Cedofeita - but I am not sure! I hope you'll find it!
