Mosaics by Elysium Tiles
Calabash mosaic tile collection
Calabash is handmade porcelain in the arabesque outline, sold by the individual piece rather than on mesh sheets. The 6 × 6 in tiles cover a square foot with eight pieces, and the 12 × 12 in Ivory Large with two. Colors include Ivory, Multiblue, Red and White, with matching trims: 2 × 12 in in Olive and Red, a 1 5/8 × 12 in Ivory cane, and a White trim made for the 12 in and 6 in tiles. Elysium marks the line pool applicable and notes high variation.

02Designing with it
Working with Calabash
High variation is the point: tone shifts from piece to piece, so lay out tiles from several boxes before setting and move the outliers to the edges or to cut pieces. Because each tile is loose, the installer controls the joint width; a narrow joint keeps the arabesque outline crisp. The trims let you finish a backsplash, a niche or a tub apron without a metal edge. Calabash London Multiblue, a 12 × 12 in square design, is listed as coming soon.
