What are penny tiles?

Penny tiles are small, coin shaped mosaic tiles. Our Copenhagen penny round tiles, for example, measure 19mm in diameter, giving a look built from lots of small, rounded pieces.

Where are penny round tiles best used?

Penny round tiles are best suited to bathrooms, kitchen splashbacks and shower walls. Their compact shape follows curves and corners with ease.

Are penny tiles suitable for floors?

Yes, penny tiles are suitable for floors, including bathroom and wet room floors. Our Copenhagen and North Haven penny tiles are both listed as suitable for these areas.

Are penny tiles easy to maintain?

Penny tiles are easy to maintain. Clean them regularly, and if you've chosen marble, reseal it occasionally to protect its natural character.

What materials are penny tiles made from?

Penny tiles are usually made from porcelain or natural marble. Porcelain gives you consistent colour and practicality. Marble offers depth and natural variation instead.

Penny Tiles | Penny Round Mosaic Tiles

Small, round and full of character, penny tiles bring gentle texture and quiet pattern to walls and floors throughout your home. Every tile is round like a tiny coin, so light catches it differently to a standard square, creating soft movement across the surface. We craft our penny round tiles in porcelain and natural marble, and they suit classic and contemporary schemes alike.

The Character of Penny Round Tiles

You'll find colourways ranging from soft neutrals to deeper, richer tones. Because the tiles are so small, they let you layer colour and pattern without overwhelming a room, whether you want a statement wall or something more restrained.

Where to Use Penny Tile

Penny tile works especially well in bathrooms, where curves and niches need a tile you can really work with, and in kitchen splashbacks, where a little pattern behind the hob makes all the difference. Shower walls suit it too: smaller pieces cope well with awkward angles.

Lay it underfoot, and it brings a subtle rhythm to your floor. Set it on a wall, and it draws the eye, adding depth even to a simple scheme.

Caring for Your Penny Tiles

Porcelain is a practical choice for busy areas. Marble brings natural variation and can develop a soft patina over time. Whichever you choose, seal and grout it properly, and it'll keep its colour and texture for years.
