Reves Series: Jade 2" x 2" Matte Porcelain Mosaic

The "Ethereal Earth" Finish While standard green tiles often rely on flat, artificial pigments, the Reves Jade Mosaicprovides a hyper-realistic, high-performance interpretation of rare, forest-veined marble and ancient crystalline deposits. It is the premier choice for a "Modern Hacienda" or "Warm Minimalist" aesthetic, prioritizing a deep, rhythmic texture and a sophisticated matte surface that elevates walls and floors to a bespoke, gallery-like status.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION Immerse your space in the sun-drenched, tactile beauty of the Reves Jade Mosaic. Designed as the ultimate "architectural jewelry" for the contemporary home, this mesh-mounted porcelain assembly is a masterpiece of Italian design. It captures the weathered, organic soul of exotic stone, featuring a mesmerizing, artisanal palette of deep emerald, misty sage, and "Moss" mineral undertones.

The Reves Jade is engineered to create "sculptural" horizontal and vertical surfaces. With its classic 2" x 2" grid dimensions and a substantial porcelain body, it provides a high-relief profile that adds a sense of tectonic depth to any installation. The Matte finish—a velvety-to-the-touch, low-sheen surface—amplifies the tile's organic "shadow play," creating a sense of movement that reacts beautifully to both warm architectural lighting and natural sun. Crafted by FLORIM with high-density precision, it offers the prestige of custom stone mosaics with the industrial durability required for high-traffic luxury living.

KEY FEATURES

• Tactile Grid Texture: A classic 2x2 square arrangement that provides a rhythmic "3D" visual effect, adding immediate architectural character to flat floors and walls.

• "Velvet" Jade Finish: A sophisticated, non-reflective matte surface that mimics the soft, organic feel of honed stone while remaining exceptionally easy to clean.

• Substantial 12" x 12" Sheet: Precision mesh-mounting allows for efficient installation and perfectly consistent grout joints across expansive shower pans or feature walls.

• Complex Mineral Palette: A curated blend of green hues that captures the shifting light of a forest canopy, providing a grounding, organic feel to modern spaces.

• High-Density Porcelain Engineering: Unlike porous natural green marbles (which are often soft), this porcelain-engineered tile is zero-absorption, acid-resistant, and stain-proof—making it perfect for luxury steam showers and gourmet kitchen accents.

INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

⚠️ CRITICAL: SUBSTRATE FLATNESS: Because of the 2" x 2" grid format, any irregularities in the substrate will be visible. Ensure shower pans or walls are perfectly floated. For wet areas, ensure 100% thin-set coverage to prevent water from "ponding" behind the mesh.

Professional Recommendations:

• Recommended Mortar: Use a premium White Non-Sag Thin-Set to ensure the vibrant "Jade" tones remain pure and are not darkened by grey adhesive shadows.

• Grout Color Matching: Select a "Sage" or "Dark Moss" grout. This allows the grid geometry to be the star, creating a seamless, monolithic "green stone" effect.

• Back-Butter for Bond: For floor applications, particularly in showers, "back-buttering" the mesh sheet with a flat trowel before setting ensures every 2x2 chip is fully supported.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Is this tile slippery on a shower floor? No. The matte finish combined with the high frequency of grout joints in a 2x2 mosaic provides excellent slip resistance (high DCOF), making it an ideal choice for high-end, spa-like wet rooms.

Can I use this for a pool waterline? While it is high-density porcelain, we recommend verifying the specific pool chemical resistance for the "Reves" series glazes. For interior wet areas like steam showers, it is world-class.

How do I clean the matte surface? Since the FLORIM glaze is high-density, dirt does not soak in. A simple wipe with a damp microfiber cloth or a pH-neutral cleaner will keep the velvety "Jade" tones looking pristine.

PRO INSTALLATION TIPS

• The "Jewel Box" Niche: Line a recessed shower niche with the Jade mosaic to create a botanical focal point that emphasizes the architectural character of the Reves series.

• Lighting for Drama: Position cool-spectrum LEDs to "graze" the tile surface. This will emphasize the 3D grid and the rich, organic veining inherent in the jade palette.

• Seamless Transitions: Match this mosaic with the larger Reves Jade 24x48 slabs on the walls to create a high-end, "limitless" look where the floor and walls harmonize perfectly.
