Daltile Florentine Carrara

The Florentine Carrara in 10" x 14" is the everyday format, and it is popular for a reason: it covers ground quickly and still works around fixtures without a pile of offcuts. Glossy is a wall finish by temperament: bright, easy to wipe, and too slick to want underfoot in a wet room. Porcelain is fired dense all the way through, so a chip does not show a different colour underneath the way it can on a glazed ceramic. 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.
