Pebble Tile

Collected from beaches all over the world, like Maui, Indonesia and Tahiti,  are unique tiles made out of various natural pebbles.  Pebble tiles could be made into an assortment of tiles using the small rounded, smooth stones that are then adhered to a mesh backing for easy installation on either a floor or wall, in the kitchen or bathroom location.

 borders come in pieces that are 6 x 12 and regular pebble tiles are prepared into 12 x 12 tile pieces with natural stones, each tile with a different style of tile such as the polished stones or the unpolished stones or the uniquely elegant glass  tiles constructed from polished to a glassy finish. Like a snowflake, every stone is different from the next, making a distinctive design for any tile application.

Polished pebbles are similar to the unpolished only they are smooth and shiny.  The “mixed salad” tiles come in the same colors which are yellow, pink, black, tan, white, red and brown with varying shades of each color add to the mix.  Polished  also come in snow ball white, yellow stone and black pearl.  They can be used as pebble flooring, accents for walls, benches and showers or shower walls, water fountains, bars or counter tops.

The unpolished are more of a dull or subdued color unlike the polished  which are shiny and brighter in color.  Unpolished  tiles come in four styles, the Maui , the Rio   , the Tahiti  and the Sedona  .  The Sedona  tiles are varying shades of yellow with some very light white thrown in whereas the Tahiti unpolished   are a dark black stones.  The Maui unpolished  tiles are varying shades of white and off-white with a little light yellow mixed in and the Tahiti unpolished  are similar to the “mixed salad” .  The Tahiti unpolished  tiles contain colors of red, pink, black, brown, tan, yellow, white with various shades of each color.

Marble mosaic  tiles come in four varieties of colors including antique yellow with various shades of ‘old-looking’ yellow, emperador – a black, brown and tan mix, golden onyx which is a combination of yellows – light, medium, dark, and off-whites and Ming Green – mostly light greens.  Marble mosaic  tiles can be used to form a picture or design in the floor or wall of a bathroom or kitchen.  Designs such as boats, fish, flowers or even people can be constructed out of marble mosaic pieces.  A creative person could come up with a design, a designer or artist could also be consulted on such a project.

Glass pebble tiles are glass that have been smooth by the hand and then polished to a glassy finish.  Indigo (blue), crystal (clear), pearl (white) and smoke (black) are the colors available for glass tiles.  Glass  tiles can be used as accent pieces in the wall of the bathroom or as a backsplash in the kitchen.

Pebble tiles have many uses in both the kitchen and bathroom, hotel lobbies, restaurants or clubs and can cause a dramatic enhance the décor of any room.
