Tessera Ponente
Why Graphite: Mosaics and feature tiles look strongest with a dark grout reading the grid.Ask your tiler for Ultracolor Plus 144 (Mapei) or Fugabella Color 35 (Kerakoll).
Take the tonal tone for a room that leans into the tile, or the neutrals to let it lead. Dark tiles read best against a pale wall. The deep paint option is for the feature wall behind the tile.
- 45° Mitre · Two tiles cut at 45° and butted together. No metal, no plastic. Crisp.
- Pencil bullnose · A separately-fired pencil rail in the matching tile finish, sat on the cut edge.
- Schlüter JOLLY · PVC, anodised aluminium, or brushed brass L-profile that caps the cut tile edge.
- Schlüter RONDEC · Quarter-round metal trim that turns the corner with a soft rolled edge.
- Schlüter SCHIENE · Right-angle metal edge that finishes a tile where it meets a different material.
Mitring mosaics one piece at a time isn't viable — a matched JOLLY trim caps the run cleanly.
Ask your tiler for Schlüter JOLLY (PVC / AC / ACGB).

What you’re really specifying
The material
Mosaic is built from small pieces mesh-mounted into sheets, so it bends around curves, niches and feature bands that a large format can't follow. Texture and shadow are the point.
The finish
A satin finish carries a soft, low lustre — warmer than matte, calmer than polished.
The format
At 450 × 520mm this rectangular format opens up offset, brick and herringbone lays — pick the pattern on the product page or in the calculator to budget the right wastage.
The colour
Tonally this sits in the charcoal family. Light changes everything with tile, so order a sample and live with it on your wall or floor across a day before you commit — what reads warm at 9am can read cool by dusk.
