PRODUCT TITLE
MSI Bianco Dolomite Crema Dotty Polished Marble Mosaic Tile
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Experience the perfect blend of classic charm and contemporary luxury with the MSI Bianco Dolomite Crema Dotty Polished Mosaic. This exquisite tile features the world-renowned Bianco Dolomite—a Turkish marble famous for its smooth, milky-white background—accented by delicate "dots" of warm Crema marble. The result is a refined, geometric pattern that adds a playful yet sophisticated rhythm to any space.
The "Dotty" or clipped-corner pattern is a timeless architectural staple that offers a softer, more intricate look than standard square mosaics. With its high-gloss polished finish, this marble reflects light beautifully, making it an ideal choice for creating a bright, airy, and upscale atmosphere in bathrooms, kitchens, and entryways.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is the "Crema Dot" made of?
The accent "dot" is typically made from a premium Crema Marfil or similar warm-toned marble. This subtle contrast breaks up the white field of the Dolomite, adding a layer of traditional elegance often seen in high-end historic homes.
Can this mosaic be used on shower floors?
Yes, it can. Because of the frequent grout lines in a mosaic pattern, this tile provides more natural slip resistance than a large-format polished tile. However, we always recommend ensuring the grout is properly maintained for safety and longevity.
What grout color is recommended for Bianco Dolomite Crema Dotty?
To keep the look clean and cohesive, a Bright White or Alabaster grout is recommended. If you want to highlight the geometric pattern of the "Dotty" layout, a very light beige or bone-colored grout can be used to pull out the warmth of the Crema accents.
How do I prevent the white marble from staining?
As with all natural marble, it is essential to seal the tile with a high-quality penetrating stone sealer before and after grouting. This creates a barrier against moisture, oils, and soap scum.
Why should I use white thinset for this installation?
Using a gray thinset can "shadow" through the white marble, making it look dark or dingy. Always use a white polymer-modified thinset to maintain the bright, pristine look of the Bianco Dolomite.
MAINTENANCE TIPS
• Clean only with pH-neutral stone cleaners.
• Wipe up spills immediately, especially acidic liquids like lemon juice or wine.
• Avoid abrasive scrubbers that could scratch the polished marble surface.
• Reseal the tile annually to maintain its protective barrier and luster.
