Please Note

It’s never advisable to select tile from images alone, especially when viewed on a screen since they can look different on different kinds of screens. Pictures are provided to give an idea of the look and variation. Colors are intended as a guide only and may vary from actual tile. Sizes listed are nominal. Please check samples before making final selection and to get actual dimensions for layout.

Trim

The surface bullnose is made from field tile that is cut, ground and reglazed.

Note about the 8" Octagon

The Octagon’s square foot calculation is the nominal square footage that just the Octagon will cover by itself. To complete the look and to cover the full area, customers also need to buy the 2x2 separately, and with the 2x2 added the coverage area will be increased by a small amount. The 2x2 is mounted on a sheet and there are 36 pieces per sheet. For every square foot of Octagon, customers will need around 3 pieces of 2x2 (1 piece of 2x2 for each piece of Octagon). Please also note that different 2x2 from many series should work, so people can really have fun choosing the combo they want to use; just please be aware that the thicknesses of different series can vary slightly and need to be considered. The minimum recommended grout joint is 3/32”.
