Daltile Limestone Corton Sable

Limestone Corton Sable, 12" x 24", hits the middle. Fewer grout lines than a small tile, none of the handling that comes with large format. A honed surface sits between matte and polished: a little depth, none of the glare, and better underfoot than a full polish. Fired harder and denser than ceramic, porcelain copes with freeze and thaw as well, so a covered porch or a three season room is fair game. Both the Mississauga and Barrie stores keep it out, so you can put it beside your cabinet door or a paint chip before you commit.
