Description:

This ground breaking "cast glass" product features a hand-made look. Unlike enameled glass, Illuminessence tiles are solid glass in which the color penetrates each piece. These tiles are translucent and possess a unique light-reflecting quality. As a result, this series not only provides a new standard for glass tile, but also provides designers with a dramatic new material to create their own masterpiece. Water Crytals Glass Mosaics are cast glass 5/16" thick, making them suitable for most residential or commercial locations, either interior or exterior. Counters, floors, pool linings, fountains and showers to name just a few applications.

SHADE RANGE DEFINITIONS

V1		Uniform Appearance: Differences among pieces from the same production run are minimal.

V2		Slight Variation: Clearly distinguishable differences in texture and/or pattern within similar colors.

V3		Moderate Variation: While the colors present on a single piece of tile will be indicative of the colors to be expected on the other tiles, the amount of colors on each piece may vary significantly. For example, that “little bit of color” on one piece of tile may be the primary color on the next piece.

V4		Random Variation: Random color differences from tile to tile, so that one tile may have totally different colors from that on other tiles. Thus, the final installation will be unique.
