This MSI Azula Hatchwork mosaic is a sophisticated fusion of classical material and contemporary geometry. By utilizing Azula marble—famous for its cool, silvery-white tones and soft blue-grey veining—in a "hatchwork" (basketweave-inspired) layout, it creates a visual texture that feels both architectural and serene.

Why Choose Azula Hatchwork?

• Subtle Blue-Grey Tones: Unlike standard grey marbles, Azula marble has a unique "cool" undertone that pairs beautifully with navy cabinetry, cool-toned woods, and chrome or polished nickel fixtures.

• Architectural Movement: The alternating direction of the marble "hatches" catches light at different angles, creating a shimmering, multi-dimensional effect on the wall or floor.

• Exceptional Traction: The dense network of grout lines in the hatchwork pattern provides excellent natural slip resistance, making it both a stylish and safe choice for wet shower floors.

• Luxury Investment: Genuine Azula marble is a high-value material that adds immediate resale value and a "designer" feel to any renovation project.

Installation & Maintenance Tips

• White Thinset Only: Mandatory: Always use a high-quality white polymer-modified thinset. Grey adhesive can "ghost" through or permanently darken the cool, light tones of the Azula marble.

• Grout Selection: Use a non-sanded grout in "Bright White," "Frost," or "Light Grey." A non-sanded grout is essential to prevent scratching the polished marble surface during application.

• Sealing: As a natural stone, marble is porous. Apply a high-quality impregnating sealer before and after grouting to protect against moisture and household stains.

• Care: Clean exclusively with pH-neutral stone cleaners. Avoid acidic chemicals, vinegar, or abrasive sponges which can "etch" (dull) the polished finish.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can this be used on a shower floor? A: Yes! The frequency of grout lines in the hatchwork pattern makes it one of the best marble options for a shower pan, providing superior grip underfoot.

Q: Is there a lot of color variation? A: Azula marble is prized for its soft consistency, but as a natural product, you should expect beautiful, subtle variations in veining. No two sheets will be identical, which is the hallmark of genuine stone.

Q: How do the sheets fit together? A: This is an interlocking design. The edges of the hatchwork pattern are designed to "puzzle" into the next sheet, ensuring the joints disappear for a seamless, continuous look.

Q: How many sheets come in a box? A: Standard packaging for this mosaic is 10 sheets per box, covering 10 square feet. We recommend adding 10-15% extra for cuts and waste.
