Product Overview
Elysium Lady Turquoise 10.75" x 10.75" Glass Mosaic Tile brings brilliant resort-style radiance, soothing tropical color, and fluid organic movement to aquatic features, luxury showers, and accent walls. Part of Elysium Tile’s popular Lady (Circular) Series, Lady Turquoise features a pebble-like "bubble" pattern made of varying circle diameters rendered in a vibrant multi-tonal turquoise palette—combining icy seafoam, bright turquoise, and rich aquamarine glass.
Engineered as a high-performance, pool-rated glass tile, it is completely non-porous and rigorously tested to withstand continuous underwater immersion, harsh water-treatment chemicals, and extreme outdoor freeze-thaw cycles. When installed in pools, water features, or full-height shower walls, sunlight and water refract across the circular glass pieces to create a shimmering, liquid-like tropical water glow.

Recommended Applications
-
Swimming Pools & Waterline Borders: Designed for continuous water immersion, creating a luminous, turquoise tropical border along pool waterlines, raised spillways, and sun shelf margins.
-
Full-Height Shower Walls & Spas: Creates a spa-like wall treatment in master bathrooms and steam showers, where water droplets bounce light off the multi-tone glass circles.
-
Kitchen Backsplashes & Coastal Accents: Adds playful texture and rich sea-inspired color behind ranges and kitchen prep areas that wipe clean effortlessly.
Installation & Handling Guidelines
⚠️ CRITICAL: TRANSLUCENT GLASS MORTAR & INSTALLATION PROTOCOL
-
Bright White Glass Mortar Required: Translucent glass will show thinset color from behind. Always set using a high-performance bright white polymer-modified glass tile mortar (e.g., MAPEI Adesilex-P10with Keraply additive). Standard gray thinset will cause the light turquoise glass to look muddy and discolored.
-
Trowel Ridge Flattening: Apply thinset with a 3/16" x 1/4" V-notch trowel, then knock down/flatten the mortar ridges with the smooth side of the trowel before setting the tile. This prevents trowel rake lines from showing through the glass.
-
Box Shuffling for Randomization: Mix and shuffle sheets from multiple boxes prior to setting to ensure the seafoam, turquoise, and aquamarine circular pieces are distributed evenly across the surface.
-
Recommended Grout Options: Use high-performance flexible grouts like MAPEI Ultracolor Plus FA, MAPEI FlexColor CQ, or Bostik TruColor RapidCure. Use bright white to make each circle pop, or soft gray/silver for a subtle aquatic transition.
Care & Maintenance
-
Non-Porous Cleanliness: Impervious glass body naturally resists algae growth, scum buildup, mold, and chemical staining.
-
Routine Cleaning: Wash periodically using warm water and a neutral tile cleaner or mild liquid dish soap with a soft microfiber cloth or non-abrasive sponge.
-
Waterline Scale Care: Remove calcium scaling along pool waterlines with a mild, pool-safe glass tile descaler and a soft nylon brush. Avoid wire brushes that could scratch the glass.
Design Profile
-
Aesthetic Inspiration: Tropical Lagoon, Coastal Chic, Resort Spa, Vibrant Modern Aquatic.
-
Visual Advantage: The varying circle sizes break up flat wall planes, while the vibrant turquoise color tones illuminate pool water, giving it a bright Caribbean lagoon look.
