Hex Tiles: Unique Shapes for Stylish Spaces

Hexagon tiles are a creative way to introduce bold geometry and visual interest to your design. At Mercury Mosaics, every hex tile is handcrafted with care, using high-quality clay and custom glazes to ensure each piece is as functional as it is beautiful. These tiles are designed to complement a wide range of aesthetics, from classic to contemporary, offering endless possibilities for customizing your space. 

Popularized in the 1920s as a go-to for bathroom floors, hex tiles have evolved into a modern design favorite. It’s well known that design trends recycle and that things previously considered dated can come back roaring back in style with labels like "vintage" or "retro". Hexagon tiles have returned again in both vintage-inspired and contemporary spaces, making them a great choice for backsplashes, floors, and wall designs.
