This obsidian metal glaze brick is a deep black glazed wall tile with a subtle metallic bloom, designed to feel architectural and moody, like light catching oil-darkened steel across a disciplined brick grid.

Obsidian Metal Glaze Brick is a 7.5 x 15 cm high-fired ceramic wall tile finished in a black metal-effect glaze with gentle tonal shifts and occasional iridescent depth. The surface reads near-matte to satin depending on light, with soft variation between tiles that prevents the wall from feeling flat or uniform.

Manufactured as a high-performance, high-fired ceramic, it is suitable for interior and exterior wall applications, where durability and colour stability matter. The brick format supports clean stacked layouts for a contemporary grid, or traditional running bond for a more classic cadence.

For specification, grout choice will shape the final look: charcoal or black grout will create a seamless, monolithic surface, while a warm grey or pale grout will sharpen the module and emphasise the pattern. Use careful setting-out to keep joints consistent, and consider sample panels on site to confirm the glaze variation and how it reads in your project lighting.

Absorbed Light in the Obsidian Metal Glaze Brick

The obsidian metal glaze brick absorbs more light than a mirrored finish. This black metal-effect tile moves through oil-dark brown and graphite, while the satin black wall tile responds to grazing light.

E-Series Mirrored Black Wide Brick offers gloss, and E-Series Silver Wide Brick provides contrast. Paktong Silver Planks introduce metal, while Byzantine Bronze Mosaic offers a tessellated comparison for this oil-dark ceramic brick. The obsidian metal glaze brick remains restrained.

Specifying the Obsidian Metal Glaze Brick

Review the obsidian metal glaze brick as a blended panel. Coordinate bond, grout and edges, and confirm the installation system for the high-fired black ceramic.
