Description

Morjo™ THIN Stained Glass Mosaic Tiles 3/4 inch (20mm) are sold by the 1/2 pound, which is approximately 85 tiles. The nominal thickness is thinner than most of the glass tile we sell, but we have used these mixed with them with no problem.

tile estimator to calculate how much you need for your project.
Compatibility
Tile thickness is nominally 2.88 mm, which is about 35% thinner than most of the glass mosaic tile we sell, but the actual thickness is probably running more than 3mm. Mixed-media mosaics and even mosaic table tops are routinely made from dissimilar materials with even greater differences in thickness. It makes grouting a little more work but not too difficult, and it is a great way to add texture and visual interest to a mosaic.
Cutting Tile
This tile can be cut with minimal force using the
Mosaic Glass Cutters that we sell.
Mounting Stained Glass Tiles
For dry indoor mosaics, stained glass can be mounted using
Weldbond adhesive, but
thinset mortar should be used for outdoor and wet mosaics.
Use in Mosaic Art
Using different materials in mixed-media mosaic is a great way to add texture, dimension, and visual interest.
Not For Floors
Morjo™Stained Glass Mosaic Tiles 3/4 inch is non-porous and can be used outdoors, but we don’t recommend it for flooring.
