Olympia Tile Oxford Bronze Metallic Ceramic Subway Tile 3" x 12"

A backsplash or a feature wall is looked at up close every day, so the colour, the sheen and the grout line count for more than they do on a floor. Oxford Bronze is made for that wall.

In simple terms: Oxford Bronze is a 3x12 brick look ceramic subway tile for walls only, such as backsplashes.

It is the metallic finish in Bronze from the Olympia Tile Oxford range. It has a brick and metal look. The actual size is 2.95" x 11.81", or 7.5 x 30 cm.

Ceramic has a lighter, softer body than porcelain, which makes it easy to cut and set, and it is mostly used on walls.

It suits kitchen backsplashes and feature walls. Pick it over a porcelain floor tile for walls, since it is lighter and easier to cut around outlets and corners; keep a porcelain on the floor.

Each box holds 22 pieces and covers 5.38 sq ft, so a 30 sq ft kitchen backsplash takes 6 boxes, or 7 boxes with about 10% extra for cuts and spares. For every 100 sq ft, plan on 21 boxes with the 10% extra included.

It is listed for walls only, so do not put it on a floor, including a shower floor. It is listed for dry areas only, so keep it off shower walls and tub surrounds. No outdoor rating is listed, so keep it on indoor walls.

In this size, Oxford also comes in Bone, Concrete Grey, Light Grey, Sky Blue and Super White.

Our own crews install it, so the people who measure the job are the people who answer for it. See Olympia Tile Oxford Bronze in person at our Mississauga showroom (700 Dundas St E, Unit 3-4, 905-277-2227) or our Barrie showroom (112 Saunders Rd, Units 1-4, 705-726-2272).
