This mother of pearl wide brick has a soft mother-of-pearl bloom, blending misty greys with warm mineral undertones, like a quiet metallic wash drifting across a hand-glazed surface.

It is a glazed ceramic wall tile in 7.5 x 15 cm, finished with a pearlescent, iridescent glaze that creates subtle light play across each piece. The base tone sits in smoky grey, but the glaze introduces gentle shifts of silver, taupe and warm sand, producing a surface that feels atmospheric rather than uniform.

The wider brick proportion gives a calmer, more grounded grid than slimmer formats, making it ideal for larger wall planes where you still want movement and depth without a busy pattern. It can be installed in stack bond for a clean architectural look, running bond for a softer rhythm, or as a vertical brick to add height and a more contemporary cadence.

Best suited to interior walls – bathrooms, shower walls, splashbacks, niches and feature panels – particularly where grazing light can bring out the pearlescence. Blend tiles during installation to distribute tonal variation, and choose grout carefully: a warm grey will keep joints quiet and cohesive, while a lighter grout will emphasise the module and make the layout more graphic.
