Midgley West Cardosia Anthracite Tile 24"x24" - Natural

Cardosia Anthracite, 24" x 24", hits the middle. Fewer grout lines than a small tile, none of the handling that comes with large format. A natural finish holds grip when it is wet and does not show water spotting the way a polished face does. 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. A box holds 15.5 sq ft, so a 100 sq ft floor works out at 8 boxes once you add the usual ten percent for cuts and the odd broken piece. Worth seeing in person in Mississauga or Barrie, because lighting changes tile more than people expect.
