ceramic tiles
three new tri-tone geometric designs in this year’s collection of ceramic tiles. ideal for indoor & outdoor use including shower install, kitchen backsplash, entryway flourish, or simply use as coasters for guest’s drinks. the asymmetry of each tile’s design allows for infinite configurations. rotate each during install for a randomized look, or create your own pattern grid by aligning choice corners.
