Olympia Tile Classic Calacatta Gold Matte Porcelain Mosaic 11.5" x 12.5"

A shower floor has to slope to the drain. Small pieces on a mesh sheet are what let the tile follow that slope, and the extra grout lines give your feet more grip.

In simple terms: Classic Calacatta Gold is an 11.5x12.5 marble look porcelain mosaic for floors and walls, indoors.

It is the matte finish in Calacatta Gold from the Olympia Tile Classic range. Each sheet measures 12.4" x 11.46", or 31.5 x 29.1 cm.

It is 5.5 mm thick. Porcelain is fired dense, so it handles water, spills and daily foot traffic and the tile itself does not need sealing.

It suits shower floors, bathroom floors, backsplashes and accent strips in a shower. Pick it over a larger tile wherever the floor has to slope or the wall needs a detail.

Each sheet covers 0.98 sq ft, so a 40 sq ft bathroom floor takes 41 sheets, or 45 sheets with about 10% extra for cuts and spares. It is sold by the sheet, so you order exactly the count you need. For every 100 sq ft, plan on 113 sheets with the 10% extra included.

No outdoor rating is listed, so keep it indoors: no porches, patios or exterior walls.

In this size, Classic also comes in Nero Marquina and Statuario White. Calacatta Gold also comes in 4".
