Description
Sample Board Morjo™ Iridescent Glass Tiles 3/4 Inch comes with one of each tile in our color palette in the 3/4 inch (20mm) size. The Morjo™ brand or iridescent tiles are mildly iridized so that the underlying colors aren’t obscured, which is a plus when creating images. Here is more information about the tiles and how they are used:
Morjo™ Iridescent Glass Mosaic Tiles 3/4 inch (20mm) are sold loose by the half pound (approximately 75 pieces). The backs are plain colored glass with embossed ridges and grooves to help adhesives bond securely. The 3/4-inch width and ~1/8-inch thickness are standard dimensions, so you can mix and match these with many other brands of tile. All our glass tiles can be cut easily with the
Mosaic Glass Cutter we sell.
MILDLY Iridized
Note that the iridescence is MILD and not so glossy that the underlying color is obscured. This is a definite plus because glass that is heavily iridized tends to look the same no matter what color the glass is underneath. These tiles show a significant amount of the underlying color and can be used to render polychromatic images.
