Brillante 210 - Glass Mosaic Tiles

Made using up to 59% post-consumer recycled glass.

Description
Semi-transparent molten glass mosaic tesserae, enriched with sparkling enamels and aventurina stone. The mixing of two glass colours allows us to achieve the classic veining effect on the surface. Aventurina is an artificial stone produced by the fusion, at approx. 1200 C, of silica, sand, copper and colour components. From the seventeenth century this process previously unknown in its whole, allows glass makers to create new effects in colour, producing an adventure in design or aventurina .

Benefits
Variations in colour between the tesserae is a peculiarity of the product, which make the surface agreeably lively and irregular. The translucent effect of the Brillante mosaic makes it particularly suitable for sophisticated applications, where brightness and transparency have key roles, especially when enhanced by special lighting effects.

Applications
Brilliante mosaics can be laid on the floor or vertically on interior and exterior surfaces. Tiles can be used in contact with water, for applications such as shower trays or swimming pools. Due to the size of the tesserae (3/4 x 3/4 or 3/8 x 3/8 ) and the frequency of joints (~ 2/48 ), the mosaic surface is inherently slip-resistant. The waterproof characteristics of this mosaic does not preclude waterproofing of the foundation substrate for swimming pools and similar applications.
