These 6 × 6-inch kiln-formed glass tiles feature a delicate, translucent palette of pale seafoam green, aqua, and clear glass. The color is soft and luminous, shifting from an almost icy blue-green in the lighter areas to a slightly deeper seafoam/turquoise tone around the edges and lower portions.
The tiles have a smooth, glossy surface with softly rounded edges, giving them a substantial sculptural quality. Fine bubbles, subtle surface variations, and faint internal marks add visual depth without overpowering the calm coloration. When placed against natural light, the transparency becomes especially beautiful, allowing the glass to glow from within.

How an artist might use them
These tiles would be excellent for contemporary glass mosaics, architectural installations, wall panels, and sculptural compositions. Their restrained coloration makes them particularly useful as a calming background or transitional element between stronger colors.
They could suggest shallow ocean water, sea glass, morning mist, ice, or reflections on a pond. An artist could combine them with darker teal, turquoise, cobalt, or clear tiles to create a layered underwater effect, or pair them with amber and warm greens for an impression of sunlight filtering through water.
Because they are translucent, they would also work beautifully in a backlit installation or LED-lit artwork, where the pale seafoam tones could become dramatically more luminous.
