These carpets require less work to construct than [[fine stone tiles]]{{RoyaltyIcon}}, both in their actual work to build and the work needed to get the required resources, and have [[beauty]] of 4 rather than 3. However, they are flammable unlike fine stone tiles, and add more [[wealth management|wealth]] to the colony. Besides these considerations, they are largely interchangable. | These carpets require less work to construct than [[fine stone tiles]]{{RoyaltyIcon}}, both in their actual work to build and the work needed to get the required resources, and have [[beauty]] of 4 rather than 3.

Gold tiles are exceptionally expensive and their effect on colony wealth bears this out, but they also provide a phenomenal beauty rating of +12. They are also relatively quick to lay. The practicality of gold tile is limited however, due to their cost and the comparative ease of using [[sculptures]] to improve [[room stats|room beauty]]. |

This means they're easier to make impressive rooms out of, and to keep them impressive when they inevitably get [[filth]]y. Additionally, the research required for silver tiles, [[Research#Smithing|Smithing]], is very important and is likely to be unlocked anyway. If the colony is producing its own cloth for carpets, silver tiles are more expensive but if the cloth needs to be bought, then they are directly comparable. Thus, silver tile is a strong competitor to carpet variants for many colonies, even ones with a cloth industry. |
