CHAPTER 17  •  Irish Ice

Chapter 17, Irish Ice is inspired by the Celtic designs found in churches, government buildings and castles from the middle ages. Unique crackle glazes give the tile the appearance of having small ice crystals on the surface that looked like cracked ice in deep translucent pools. The effect gives a tremendous depth of color not normally found in glazed tiles.

Field tiles in assorted sizes coordinate with 2" x 2" mosaics and complement unusual frosted glass mosaics that were specially selected to work with the Irish Ice color palette. Embossed decors of Celtic origin offer opportunities for a truly unique installation design. They can be used as spot decos to draw interest to an accent wall or as a repeat pattern in a larger area. Matching architectural mouldings complete the collection.

Chapter 17 is ideal for installations on kitchen, bath or powder room walls and exterior walls not subject to freeze-thaw cycles. The unique decorative colors and themes also offer creative options for restaurants and commercial installations. We also do not recommend the crackle finish for horizontal food serving or preparation areas such as kitchen counters, but the tiles work beautifully for powder rooms and bathroom counters Frosted glass is beautiful on swimming pools, spas, bathroom floors and walls, kitchen backsplashes, exterior facades and steam rooms.
