Description

Introducing the Thassos White Marble 2 x 12 Bias Border with Black Dots — Polished or Honed (A1). This refined border tile brings a crisp, architectural edge to bathrooms, kitchens, and feature walls, elevating any tile layout with its pure white canvas and precise detailing.

The border’s clean, bright white background is the hallmark of Thassos marble, renowned for its timeless clarity. The subtle contrast of black dot accents adds a modern, graphic touch without overpowering the surrounding field tile. Choose between two finishes to match your design: Polished for a glossy, high-shine look that makes whites appear brighter, or Honed for a softer, contemporary satin feel that’s forgiving to fingerprints and wear.

Key features

• Material and grade: Thassos white marble in A1 grade, delivering consistent color, crisp edges, and dependable performance across installations.
• Size and profile: 2 x 12 border tiles designed to frame and separate tile fields with a precise, even rhythm.
• Pattern: Bias border with Black Dots—tiny, deliberate accents that create a refined frame around your tile layout.
• Finish options: Polished for a radiant, reflective surface or Honed for a contemporary, matte texture. Both finishes highlight the marble’s natural beauty and keep the border looking intentional over time.
• Versatility: Ideal as a decorative edge around showers, vanity backsplashes, or as an accent line within a larger marble installation.

Ideal uses

• Bathroom showers and tub surrounds where a clean border defines the transition between wall tile and field tile.
• Kitchen backsplashes needing a crisp, high-contrast edge that ties together white and patterned surfaces.
• Niches, curbs, or mantel details that benefit from a restrained, architectural accent.
• Feature walls and fireplace surrounds where a bright white frame makes geometric patterns pop.

Practical considerations

• Natural variation: As with all marble, expect slight differences in veining and dot distribution—these variations enhance authenticity and ensure a unique installation.
• Installation tips: Plan your grout color to complement the border; light gray or white grout helps the border read clearly. Ensure precise cuts at corners and transitions with a skilled installer for a seamless look.
• Maintenance: Seal after installation and re-seal per your product’s guidelines. Use a pH-neutral cleaner to protect the marble’s finish and avoid acidic substances that can etch the surface.

Whether you’re renovating a bath, designing a kitchen centerpiece, or adding a striking border to a feature wall, the Thassos White Marble 2 x 12 Bias Border with Black Dots delivers a sophisticated, enduring statement. The combination of pure white marble, architectural dot accents, and the choice between polished or honed finishes makes this border tile a standout that elevates any space.
