🛠️ Installation & Maintenance Notes
-
Modern Edging: Unlike bullnose tile which has a wide radius, the Jolly provides a narrow, 0.5-inch finished edge. It is designed to sit flush with the edge of your field tile to hide the "biscuit" (the raw interior) of the tile.
-
Mitered Corners: For the cleanest look on outside corners, have your installer "miter" the Jolly at a 45-degree angle. This creates a sharp, architectural corner.
-
Adhesive Tip: Use a high-bond thin-set to ensure these slim pieces stay perfectly aligned during the curing process.
-
Low Maintenance: Porcelain is non-porous. Simply wipe the trim with a damp cloth and a mild, pH-neutral cleaner. Unlike wood or metal trim, it will never rust, rot, or require painting.
❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: What is the difference between a Jolly and a Bullnose? A: A bullnose is a larger tile with a significantly rounded edge. A Jolly (like the Celine Blue) is a very thin, linear trim piece used to create a minimalist, modern edge. It is the preferred choice for contemporary "European-style" bathroom designs.
Q: Can I use this Jolly with tiles from a different collection? A: Absolutely! While it pairs perfectly with the Celine series, the Matte Blue finish is versatile enough to act as a "frame" or accent for white subway tiles, marble mosaics, or light grey porcelain.
Q: Is the color consistent throughout the piece? A: Yes. This is a glazed porcelain trim, meaning the Celine Blue color is consistent across the entire surface. However, as with all ceramics, we recommend ordering all your trim at once to ensure dye-lot consistency.
Q: Can this be used inside a shower? A: Yes. Porcelain is 100% waterproof. The Celine Jolly is an excellent choice for finishing shower niches (the recessed shelving) or the top edge of a wainscot wall in a wet area.
Q: How many pieces should I order? A: Measure the total linear inches of your exposed edges and divide by 8. We strongly recommend ordering 15% extra to account for miter cuts and small end-pieces.
