A decorated ceramic floor tile is disclosed, comprising a clay tile substrate, an initial glaze layer applied to the tile substrate, and a high-fired glazed decal image applied to the tile such that the decal extends substantially at least to the edges of the initial glaze layer around the entire perimeter of the tile substrate. A ceramic floor having a substantially continuous decorative image thereon, comprising a plurality of ceramic floor tiles of the invention also is disclosed. A process for making floor tiles of the invention includes providing a clay tile substrate, bisquing the clay substrate to remove moisture from the clay, applying an initial glaze layer to the bisqued clay tile substrate, performing a first firing of the glazed tile substrate, applying a glazed decal image to the fired glazed tile such that the decal extends substantially at least to the edges of the initial glaze layer, and performing a second firing of the decaled tile such that the decal image is substantially fully bled to the periphery of the tile around the entire perimeter of the tile.
