Contemporary Reflection: The Metallic Vitreum Argentum Tile
Achieve a sleek, industrial-glam aesthetic with the Metallic Vitreum Argentum Tile —a sophisticated 10x30cm glass brick that delivers the brilliant, cool luster of polished silver.
The Vitreum Argentum is a standout piece in the Fired Earth Metallic collection, designed for interiors that demand light, clarity, and modern luxury. Each 10x30cm tile features a high-purity glass body with a precision-applied silver metallic foil on the reverse. This "back-painting" technique creates a stunning sense of depth, allowing the silver to glow through the glass while protecting the finish from daily wear. The elongated rectangle format is perfect for creating a clean, architectural look—whether laid in a crisp stack-bond for a modern feel or a classic brick-bond to catch the light from every angle. It is the perfect choice for brightening dark kitchens or adding a high-shine "mirror" effect to contemporary bathrooms.

⚠️ Professional Installation Guidelines
To ensure the silver finish remains flawless:
Adhesive Selection: You must use a premium white glass adhesive. Never use grey adhesive, as it will darken the silver appearance.
Protect the Backing: Take care not to scratch the silver foil on the back of the tile during handling or cutting.
Cutting Glass: Use a wet saw with a continuous rim diamond blade specifically for glass to prevent splintering and edge-chipping.
Grout Recommendation: A fine, non-sanded grout is often preferred to prevent scratching the glass surface during application.
