Notes on Material
Natural stone is a product of nature, and no two stones are exactly alike. Because of the natural variation in this type of material, there can be inherent color variation and/or vein & fossil variation within lots. Therefore, variations in color, pattern, texture, and veining must be accepted prior to installation. To achieve optimal results in shading, layout and design, tile should be randomly selected from multiple boxes during installation. We recommend a minimum of 10% overage on all orders. Please take care when grouting and protect surface from abrasion. Installation constitutes acceptance. We advise retaining control samples to aid in color matching if additional material is required (match not guaranteed). Since variations are common in natural stone products, we recommend final selection be made from an actual tile mock-up.
Natural stone must be sealed prior to the grouting process, again upon completion of installation and periodically thereafter to enhance and maintain the beauty of the stone.
Samples and photos are representative but may not indicate all variations of our handcrafted glass tiles.
Please review the Recommended Usage & Floor Applications charts before purchase, and see our Stone/ Vesuvio Installation Guidelines for further information.
Series overview
From a heritage of mosaics erupts Vesuvio—a mixed media mosaic series that combines glimmering glass with natural white marble. Elegant yet durable, the natural stone creates a beauty only achieved after millions of years of nature working her magic. The glass is evocative of semi-precious stone found in volcanic formations. In concert, the simple geometric patterns become the timeless foundation for many interior styles.
