Abstract: A ceramic tile has its rear uniformly configured as small frusto-conical or frusto-pyramidal tapered projections 2 of constant height, thus eliminating internal stresses during firing, eliminating zones of different color tone on the front face, and improving the gripping coefficient when laying.A portion of the projections 2, in groups of at least two, are taller to form feet 3 for resting during stacking.
