Mosaics by Elysium Tiles

Arabesque mosaic tile

The Arabesque collection gathers four glass mosaics cut in the lantern-like arabesque outline, each with its own surface. Aladdin Painting uses painted glass; Arabesque Beige Frosted is a frosted beige; Arabesque Pebble mixes beige and brown glass with an iridescent sheen; Lantern Doily sets matte light grey arabesques inside a shiny glass border. Several are water-jet cut. Sheets run from 8.75 × 12.25 in to 11.75 × 11.75 in, and all four carry a limited-availability note.

Working with Arabesque

Glass arabesques belong on a white glass-tile thin-set, which Elysium calls for on these designs, because a grey adhesive would shadow through the lighter pieces. Grout suggestions come from Bostik's Dimension line: Diamond H600 for most colors and Opal H610 for Lantern Doily. Aladdin Painting is the only pool-rated design in the group. The other three work best as wall accents, such as a kitchen backsplash, a bar front or a powder-room wall. Ask about current availability before you plan a large area.

Ask a designer

Are the Arabesque glass mosaics pool rated?

Only Aladdin Painting carries a pool rating, and for that use Elysium points to MAPEI's Adesilex P10 mortar with Keraply plus a pool-grade grout. The frosted, iridescent and matte designs are best kept to interior walls.

Why do glass arabesques need a white thin-set?

Glass lets light pass into the setting bed, so the color of the adhesive becomes part of the finished look. A white thin-set made for glass tile keeps beige, grey and painted glass true to the sample, and full coverage avoids visible trowel ridges.
