Hand carved by chisel and hammer into Han Bai Yu (Chinese White Marble) & Qing Shi (Chinese Black Marble), the Hua tiles by Robert Kuo for Anne Sacks are intricate and beautiful. The traditional Chinese motif is visually stunning with tons of light and shadow play, with added interest of natural veins and lines within the marble. The tiles are low relief, which make them suitable for floor applications, and are appropriate for all indoor vertical applications. The complete Robert Kuo collection is admirable, but the Hua pattern motif is just devine.

Whats not to love- good looks and good for the earth? Re_Collection ceramic tiles from Mirage are fabricated to look and feel like natural wood, without the concerns (such as warping, aging, scratching, etc.) of natural wood. These tiles can be used in applications where wood is not appropriate, such as wet and high-traffic areas. Inspired by burnt wood, the use of heat during production creates the cracks on the surface simulating a weathered wood plank. It is also through the heat process in which the tile becomes very more solid and strong. Rich colors and aged effects add to the character which is so apparent in natural wood, making the tiles look and feel very authentic.
Re_Collection tiles are available in several finishes and colors, resistant to most common acids, are non combustible, heat resistant, stain resistant, frost resistant, stable chromatically (colors do not change when exposed to sun, weathering, or smog), and are environmentally friendly. Although the tiles are ceramic made from natural materials, they are more sustainable than using wood, with low environmental impact.
