Description
Novara Shell White draws on the timeless beauty of fossil limestone — a clean white background scattered with the soft visual texture of shell fragments and natural sediment. The effect is airy, coastal, and sophisticated, ideal for beach-house interiors, bright bathrooms, and clean Mediterranean-inspired kitchens.
Manufactured as a through-body porcelain, the tile delivers the practical performance that real fossil stone cannot: total stain resistance, frost-proof durability, and a rectified edge for a clean, near-seamless install. The natural matte finish keeps glare low and the shell texture readable.
Available in 24×48 and 12×24 formats with coordinating Deco-Groove decorative panels, mosaics, and bullnose trim. Sold by the carton (15.26 SF, 2 pieces, ~65 lbs) and pallet (457.8 SF, 36 pieces, ~1924 lbs).
