nMosaic Tiles are a fun way to bring an artistic touch to your home or business. Made from any variety of porcelain, ceramic, glass or natural stone, mosaic tiles are small square, rectangle, hexagon, octagon or diamond shaped pieces that are attached to a mesh backing for easy installation. Most often used on walls, floors, or as decorative trim, they are a very popular trend in kitchen backsplash design. Mosaic tiles are often 1″ x 1″ or 2″ x 2″ pieces on a 12″ x 12″ sheet but can be purchased in many sizes and configurations.
