Book Matching Tiles: White Marble, Dream White

[/title][fusion_text]

When tiles are bookmatched it means that instead of polishing the same face of each tiles, they alternate for them so that they open up like a book. Thus the name.Here’s an example of Statuary marble in a bath. All of the walls are made out of tiles. The seam is where the upside down ‘V’ is. See how it opens up and mirrors itself perfectly?

Bookmatching can be expensive, as there is a large amount of waste.Bookmatched tiles are usually used on feature walls, large islands and slab showers.
When we bookmatch the stone it’s always fun to see what the design looks like. It reminds me of abstract (and sometimes not too abstract) art. We’ve seen the silhouette of a woman, animals, faces, hearts, just to name a few things.

Also keep in mind that not all stone can be bookmatched, it depends on the characteristics of the stone. They are typically stones with strong veins and lines that create very geometric patterns that make your floor, walls or countertops much more interesting.
Dream White (below) really shows it’s beauty when bookmatched.
