SICIS Waterglass
The SICIS Waterglass paper face-mounted mosaic collection showcases transparent smalto glass tiles that capture the essence of water’s clarity and movement. Each tile, sized at 5/8" x 5/8" (15x15 mm) with a 4 mm thickness, is precisely cut into square chips featuring smooth, polished surfaces and slightly rounded edges. Both tile sides are finished, offering versatility for diverse applications. Mounted on paper-faced sheets (11-5/8" x 11-5/8", ~0.94 sq. ft. per sheet), these mosaics are ideal for wet and submerged settings, including indoor/outdoor floors, walls, pools, and bathrooms, with a 1.63 mm joint size.
Available in 29 vivid colors, including ruby red, emerald green, and topaz yellow, the tiles create a gem-like effect with luminous, fluid reflections. Crafted from natural minerals like selenium and cadmium, they exhibit artisanal traits such as air bubbles, fissures, and subtle variations in color, shade, and size. Produced in Italy by SICIS, these mosaics blend advanced technology with premium materials. For upkeep, use glass-specific detergents; for installation, adhere to SICIS guidelines using materials like Litokol for wet environments.
