Nice to work with....

Lol, 300 x 200 ***** of a tile. Best cutting in one go.

 

[AliGage]

OMG! Topps has finally found someone that'll buy these!

 

[Ian]

Porcelanosa isn't it?

 

[Peter]

Looks like cheap Porcelanosa copies. The Porcelanosa ones are single glass mosaics.

I've fitted a few different types from porcelanosa, glass and stone on mosaic mesh and these in a couple of different colours, didn't know Topps were knocking out copies.

 

[Peter]

Ah right, the glass ones are much better looking. Those need some colour.

 

[White Room]

Joining all the dots up with grout is going to be fun.....

 

[John Benton]

Porcelanosa do a tile very similar in ceramic and they had an iridescent finish. Saw them in a shower area a couple of months back.

They also do one in brown shaded circles £22m to me if I remember rightly.

 

[Ian]

Some pics of the Porcelanosa ones, all the angles were fun to cut!

 

[Stef]

Some Porcelanosa ones I fitted as a feature last week.




These were on sale at CTD.

 

[PaulSmith]

Porcelanosa isn't it?

Yep

 

[tubs]

Did theses one a couple of years ago, Dune Planet Mosiacs £220p/m2 , nightmare to work with !!

 

[AliGage]

I'm sure topps are doing something very similar. Just spent the last 20 minutes searching their website for it but can't find it.

Its a "new" line apparently :what:

 

[Lee@emctiles]

This is the one Topps do Allister Harmony Th factory is called Magma

This is another colour (other than the white one originally posted) The idea is that you grout all over the entire surface of the ceramic tile.......
Weve tested these to see if the grout can actually stick, i definitely wouldn't be selling these for a shower area, they might look nice as a feature tile but we decided against importing them.

Be interested in hearing if anybody has fixed the ones from Topps.

 

[Lee@emctiles]

These were the other two topps brought

Natura Purple

Antique White (this is the only one we didnt have any problems with, quite like these.)

 

[widler]

I fit these to a ensuite floor a few years ago,looked nice but was like walking on a pebble beach !
And horrible to match up

 

[Spud]

The porcenalosa ones are good imo easy I found ?

 

[PaulSmith]

Grouting up today. Wonder how long they will last in the shower.

 

[Lee@emctiles]

I would insist on using a grout sealer at least......What grout did you use out of interest Paul?

 

[mz30]

We use these all the time ,some bright spark architect thought they would be great for splashbacks round a bath I just machine cut all the tops and bottoms to suite nightmare to stop splintering on a manual cutter they called Firenze Nacar if am right

Those blue ones I fitted are Firenza Oceano.
Tried a manual cut, forget it!!
Even with the Sigma.

[STEVO]

Do you fit these straight on top of each other, no spacers needed?
