Bring a romantic diamond design to your project with this exciting mix of Mother of pearl and Thassos White Marble Tile. The square tiles laid on a 45-degree angle create a beautiful diamond effect with a geometric layout that can fit any interior style. Marble tile is a great design choice that will never fade out of fashion and will work with any décor while the geometric patterns make the space come alive. The clean, bright feel of the white Thassos marble tile gives extra depth to the space and brings a peaceful atmosphere around you.
Shimmering squares of Mother of Pearl shell inlaid between each diamond marble add a delicate detail to this white-on-white patterned tile. The design is backed by a flexible mesh to make it easy to install this beautiful diamond tile pattern on floors and walls! The Square Rombus Pearl White Thassos Shell Tile is a gorgeous addition to a traditional home design, whether as a white kitchen backsplash with a hint of shine, a luxurious master bathroom suite, a gorgeous fireplace surround in an elegant living room design, or even an enchanting floor design!
These diamond-shaped mosaic tiles are perfect for kitchen backsplashes, shower walls, and other interior wall applications. In low traffic areas, mosaic tiles become a great option for floor tile since they have extra grout lines to provide more slip resistance. Whether used as wall or floor tile, these diamonds are ready to make your space stand out. Due to the nature of stone, variations in color, pattern and veining may occur.
*When installing Thassos marble in areas that can be exposed to standing water, such as shower floors, it's important to note that white marble contains naturally occuring iron deposits that may surface over time after contact with water. This is considered a natural feature of the stone. To preserve the crystal white shimmer of this beautiful marble, Tile Club recommends regularly applying a penetrating tile sealer to provide advanced stain protection, all while preserving the natural look of the marble.

Installation & care
Thassos and Mother of Pearl Mosaic Tile Installation and Maintenance Guide
Tile Club’s Thassos + Mother of Pearl mosaic tiles combine luminous white materials, natural texture, and reflective detail for elegant wall and floor installations. Featuring a mix of natural stone and shell materials, these mosaics bring a bright, polished look to backsplashes, showers, feature walls, and other approved spaces.
Because natural stone and shell are formed organically, variation is part of the character of the material. Color variation, size differences, surface markings, small blemishes, and occasional chipped edges may be present, and no two pieces will be exactly alike.
When installed and maintained properly, these mosaic tiles can provide long-lasting beauty in a range of residential and commercial light-use applications.
Before beginning your project, please review the following recommendations and confirm the most current specifications, approved applications, and installation guidance.
1. Pre-Installation Inspection
Inspect Before Installation
Inspect all tile before installation. Installing the material confirms acceptance of the product’s appearance, color, shade variation, texture, sizing, finish, and overall condition.
Please contact Tile Club with any questions about product acceptability, visual variation, or suitability before installation begins.
Dry Layout Recommended
Lay out the mosaic sheets before installation to review the overall blend, material variation, sheet alignment, and finished appearance.
This is especially important for mosaics that include natural stone or shell, since variation is expected and contributes to the final look.
Installation Responsibility
Tile Club is not responsible for improper installation, installation workmanship, or issues caused by unsuitable jobsite conditions.
Final responsibility for proper installation rests with the installer and end user. Slight differences in color, shade, texture, and production runs are normal and should be expected.
2. Recommended Applications
Thassos + Mother of Pearl mosaic tiles may be suitable for the following applications when confirmed on the individual product page:
Interior walls
Exterior walls
Interior floors
Exterior floors
Kitchen backsplashes
Bathroom backsplashes
Shower walls
Shower floors
Light foot traffic floors
Important Usage Notes
Natural stone and shell materials are not recommended for swimming pools or areas that will be submerged in water.
Always confirm that the specific mosaic tile is suitable for your desired installation before beginning the project. Some products may not be appropriate for every application listed above.
For areas exposed to extreme temperatures, including fireplace hearths or areas behind cooktops, contact Tile Club before installation.
For additional product or installation guidance, contact Tile Club Support at support@tileclub.com or 1-833-TILE-CLB (845-3252).
3. Installation Recommendations
Tile Club strongly recommends using a licensed tile professional familiar with current NTCA, ASTM, M.I.A., and ANSI installation standards.
Pre-Sealing Recommendations
Natural stone may vary in absorption.
Pre-sealing this material before installation is recommended to help protect the surface from staining caused by setting materials or grout.
Use a penetrating-type sealer designed to leave the material looking natural. Suggested sealer brands include, but are not limited to:
Dupont™ Stonetech® Professional Sealer
Aqua Mix
Always follow the sealer manufacturer’s instructions. Test the sealer in a small area before applying it to the full installation to confirm suitability and appearance.
For additional guidance on sealers, contact Tile Club Support.
Surface Preparation
Install mosaic tile over a clean, sound, flat concrete or mortar substrate.
The surface must be free of contaminants or any condition that could compromise the bond of the tile.
Cutting Recommendations
Use a high-quality, well-maintained wet saw with a diamond blade designed for cutting stone and shell.
A poorly maintained tile saw or improper blade may cause chipping during cutting. Cut slowly and carefully to help protect the tile edges and surface.
Grouting Considerations
Grout joints should be fully packed and free of voids and pits.
Clean excess grout from the surface while the grout is still fresh and before it hardens.
Before grouting the full installation, test in a small area to confirm that the selected grout color is suitable and that the tile surface does not scratch during grouting.
4. Recommended Setting Materials
Use setting materials appropriate for mosaic installations that may include natural stone and shell materials.
Recommended Mortars
LATICRETE® Glass Tile Adhesive Mortar
LATICRETE® 220 Marble & Granite Mortar
Or equivalent setting materials suitable for the specific tile materials and installation conditions
Recommended Grout
LATICRETE® PERMACOLOR® Grout
Or equivalent high-performance grout suitable for the material and installation area
Always follow the setting material manufacturer’s instructions, coverage rates, cure times, and substrate requirements.
5. Care & Maintenance
Proper care will help protect the appearance and integrity of your mosaic installation over time.
Routine Cleaning
Clean the mosaic surface with:
Mild pH-neutral detergent cleaner
Damp sponge
Soft rag or cloth
Use gentle cleaning methods to help protect natural stone and shell surfaces.
Avoid Harsh Products
Do not use:
Acidic cleaners
Alkaline cleaners
Solvent-based cleaners
Abrasive cleaning products
Wax treatments
Bleach or cleaning solutions left sitting on the surface
These products may damage or discolor the tile and grout.
Prompt Stain Removal
Do not allow stains, soap residue, or cleaning solutions to remain on the mosaic surface for extended periods.
Clean spills and residue promptly to help preserve the surface appearance.
Test Cleaners First
Always test any cleaning product in a small, inconspicuous area before using it across the full installation.
Acceptable cleaners for natural stone and glass surfaces may be available through Tile Club or other tile dealers.
