Ottoman 8 mm Glass Mosaic Tiles

Small 8 mm Glass Mosaic Tiles for Detailed Mosaic Projects

Ottoman 8 mm glass mosaic tiles are small pieces made from recycled glass for mosaic crafts, pixel mosaics and detailed designs. The range includes more than 40 colours with either a glossy or an iridescent, pearlescent finish. Their precise 8 × 8 mm size is especially well suited to small pictorial motifs, flowers, leaves, borders, lettering and other details that require careful placement.

Glossy or pearlescent finish?

  • Glossy finish: the smooth, highly glossy glass surface reflects light and brings out the colour clearly.
  • Iridescent, pearlescent finish: the light-refracting, shimmering surface adds depth and lively variation that changes with the colour and lighting.

The two finishes can be used separately or combined in the same mosaic. Mixing glossy and pearlescent tiles creates attractive contrasts and details that gain a lively appearance in the light.

What are Ottoman 8 mm glass mosaic tiles suitable for?

Their small size makes Ottoman tiles particularly suitable for pixel mosaics, small decorative motifs, flowers, leaves, borders, lettering and clearly defined details. They can be used on plant pots, lanterns, mirrors, decorative objects, wall decorations and garden ornaments, as well as in detailed artistic mosaics.

The tiles are square with gently rounded edges and corners. Their compact size also makes them suitable for slightly curved surfaces and carefully shaped designs. By combining different colours, you can create clear patterns, soft colour transitions and small pictorial motifs.

Can Ottoman mosaic tiles be used outdoors?

Yes. Ottoman glass mosaic tiles are UV- and frost-resistant, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. For outdoor mosaics, the base, mosaic adhesive and grout must also be suitable for exterior use and changing weather conditions.

Pack sizes, quantity and approximate coverage

  • 50 g: approximately 85–100 tiles, with approximate coverage of 90 cm², equivalent to an area of about 9 × 10 cm when the grout gap is approximately 2 mm
  • 200 g: approximately 340–400 tiles, with approximate coverage of 360 cm², equivalent to an area of about 18 × 20 cm when the grout gap is approximately 2 mm

The number of tiles may vary depending on the colour, finish and weight of the individual pieces. The layout, cutting and shape of the project will also affect the final coverage.
