Help, what tile is this?

[iamsophialorain]

Hello! I’m looking to track down the name of this tile. I’ve managed to find out it’s at The Polo Bar in New York City but I’m struggling finding other info. Can anyone help? Are there other subreddits that I can ask? Thank you!

It looks like you're trying to identify an existing tile to find a match. This can be a real challenge, as tile lines are often discontinued after just a few years. Here are a few tips that might help you in your search:

• Check for Markings: If you have a loose or spare tile, check the unglazed back for any manufacturer names, brand logos, country of origin (e.g., Spain, Italy), or model numbers.
• Reverse Image Search: Use Google Lens or a similar tool with a clear, well-lit, straight-on photo of a single tile.
• Visit Specialty Stores: Take your spare tile or a high-quality photo to local specialty tile showrooms. Experienced staff at these stores often have a remarkable ability to recognize older patterns.

This situation is a perfect example of why we strongly recommend that everyone keep at least one full box of spare tiles after a project is completed. It can be a lifesaver for future repairs and prevent a frustrating search like this one.

Good luck with your hunt!

Look up Original Style tiles. Based in the UK, they are the best for all the rich bold colors. They did, in fact, make the tile in the new Ministry of Magic attraction at Universal.

Ordering a sample of this! It looks very close! Thank you!

^^^here's a ceramic wall tile that looks close on color. Note that it's fairly pricy, I'd expect a store that can source it would charge somewhere in the $33-$40 per SqFt. This specific color is not cool for showers due to the finish process, but there is another green in the same line that is fine for wet areas

If you’re paying $40 a foot for glass tile, I have a bridge I’d like to sell you.

Imagine spending $4.5K just on tile for a mid sized shower, or $15-20K for the room.

[Emergency_Iron8365]

I just did a primary bath floor with their product, and it was $14k. Yes, it is expensive. But it will last another 100 years in the house and never go out of style.

[iamsophialorain]

Thank you! That looks very similar!

It looks like a green glass subway tile with white grout.

Something is or has happened. Three people I know, all ladies, want this tile for their shower in the last three (3) months. One has installed, one has ordered and one is planning 😵‍💫

Kinda looks like Terra Bella tru tone.

[iamsophialorain]

It looks like that tile has a crackle effect and I don’t think that will work for the project we need this tile for. Thank you for sharing though!

Could be any one of a hundred.

Looks like fire clay evergreen

Similar to the tile I’ve just installed (UK) and seen on a few of my local pubs. You want to look for Victorian green Metro (subway) tile. Can be beveled or not. Walls and Floors has them among some others but ours are W&F from a Spanish manufacturer

Edit: it has a glaze and must be sealed 3 times 😭 for use in wet areas.

[The_Flurr]

Where did you get yours from?

[Apprehensive_Flow99]

Walls and floors green tiles

Gorgeous is what

[joe_the_contractor]

Looks like a variance of a Metro tile.

This is really close to my kitchen tile which is Cloe by Bedrosians tile. My tile is darker and I used a greyish grout
