Product Overview
Florim Rêves Jade Glossy 12" x 24" Porcelain Tile (30 cm x 60 cm) is a luxury Italian porcelain field tile manufactured by Florim (part of the prestigious Rêves de Rex collection). Inspired by rare, translucent alabaster and precious green onyx minerals, the Jade colorway features an elegant, soothing palette of soft seafoam green, sage, mint, light grey, and subtle warm honey-gold mineral veining.
Factory-finished with a high-reflection Glossy (Polished) glaze, this 12x24 rectangular format magnifies light transmission, color contrast, and crystalline stone depth. It delivers a serene, green onyx-look field with excellent installation versatility for master shower walls, vanity backdrops, powder rooms, fireplace surrounds, and commercial accent walls.

Installation and Handling Guidelines
⚠️ CRITICAL WARNING: POLISHED PORCELAIN TILE PROTOCOL
-
Thinset Mortar Selection: Set using a high-performance, polymer-modified thinset specified for porcelain tile (ANSI A118.4 or ANSI A118.15 like MAPEI® Ultraflex 2 White or LATICRETE® 254 Platinum White). Always use white thinset to preserve true translucent jade green color clarity.
-
Protect the Polished Glaze: Use non-marking rubber floats and clean tools during installation. Avoid abrasive sponges or harsh scouring pads that could scratch the polished glossy surface during grout cleanup.
-
Running Bond Offset Rule: When setting 12" x 24" tiles in a staggered running bond layout, TCNA standards recommend offsetting joints by no more than 33% (approx. 8 inches) rather than a 50% half-brick bond to eliminate potential tile bow lippage.
-
Rectified Micro-Grout Lines: Precision-rectified edges allow tiles to be installed with tight 1/16" to 1/8" grout joints.
Professional Recommendations
-
Dry Lay & Vein Blending: The Rêves Jade graphic carries fluid onyx veining (V3 rating). Unbox and dry-lay tiles from multiple cartons before setting to balance seafoam, sage, mint, and honey-gold tones across the layout.
-
Grout Color Strategy: Pair with a soft mint, pale grey, or bright white high-performance grout (such as MAPEI® Ultracolor Plus FA in White or Frost) to make tile joints blend seamlessly into the green onyx background.
Care and Maintenance
-
Routine Cleaning: Wipe down using warm water and a neutral pH porcelain cleaner with a microfiber cloth. Avoid oil-based soaps or wax-based cleaners that leave a dull film over glossy glazes.
-
100% Acid & Stain Proof: Impervious vitrified porcelain stoneware (< 0.08% water absorption) protects against cosmetic acids, hair dyes, oils, wine, and household cleaning chemicals.
-
Zero Sealing Required: Unlike natural green onyx, jade calcite, or alabaster stone, glazed Italian porcelain is non-porous and requires no topical sealers, waxes, or impregnating treatments over its lifespan.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Florim Rêves Jade Glossy and Matte (Naturale)?
The Glossy version features a mirror-like polished finish that accentuates the depth of the green onyx veins and maximizes light reflection—ideal for feature walls. The Matte version offers a soft, non-reflective finish that provides certified foot traction for floor installations.
Is Florim Rêves Jade Glossy 12x24 suitable for walk-in shower floors?
Polished glossy porcelain can become slippery when wet. While it is an exceptional choice for shower walls, a matte finish or smaller mosaic format is recommended for walk-in shower floors.
Does this green onyx-look porcelain tile require sealers?
No. Florim porcelain stoneware is vitrified and non-porous (< 0.08% absorption), requiring zero sealers or topical waxes over its lifespan.
