Klinker oil from www.stonetools.co.uk will do the trick.

So they haven't been sealed and what are they other than terracotta upside down ?

One thing to add Neale is you can only make is so dark as the clay will allow yes you can use dark polish ect but if you use polish it tends to get dirty and darkens around the edge of the tile in time don't think It looks good don't forget spontaneous combustion with oil and patina :8:
