Mikasa Forma Glacier Blue Textured Porcelain Tile – 24x48

The Mikasa Forma Glacier Blue Textured Porcelain Tile combines soft icy blue, pale gray, and white tones with a distinctive linear textured surface for a refined, architectural appearance. Inspired by the layered movement of woven fibers and striated natural surfaces, its fine horizontal detailing creates subtle visual movement that changes with light and viewing angle.

Its expansive 24x48 format allows the linear pattern to flow across larger surfaces with fewer grout joints, making Mikasa Forma Glacier Blue especially striking on feature walls, bathrooms, shower surrounds, and contemporary floors. V2 slight variation provides gentle tonal differences between pieces, while rectified edges create clean lines and a precise large-format installation. As part of the Mikasa Forma collection, Glacier Blue coordinates with the Beige and Black colorways while offering a lighter, cooler design direction.

Porcelain Tile Information

Mikasa Forma Glacier Blue is a textured porcelain tile distinguished by its fine linear pattern and softly layered blue-gray coloration. The surface creates the appearance of numerous delicate horizontal striations, giving large installations texture and movement without relying on a bold or highly contrasting pattern.

The V2 slight variation creates subtle differences in color and surface appearance between individual pieces while maintaining a cohesive overall look. For the most balanced installation, open multiple cartons and blend pieces before setting.

The large 23.45x46.97" actual format allows the linear texture to extend across broad surfaces with fewer grout joints, making it particularly effective for full-height feature walls, shower surrounds, bathroom walls, and contemporary floor installations. Rectified edges provide a precise dimensional finish that complements the collection's clean architectural character.

Large-format porcelain requires proper substrate preparation, mortar coverage, handling, and installation techniques. Installation should follow current industry and setting-material manufacturer recommendations.

Recommended Mortar: Laticrete 254 Platinum
Recommended Grout: Laticrete Permacolor

Sample Orders

We strongly recommend ordering a sample before placing a full order to evaluate the actual glacier blue coloration, linear texture, finish, and subtle V2 variation.

Because the fine linear pattern extends across a large 24x48 tile, a small sample will represent only a portion of the overall design and may not display the complete tonal and textural movement present in a full-size piece or finished installation.

Samples are non-returnable and non-refundable.
