Honed calacatta marble basketweave mosaic tile
Natural marble mosaic in Calacatta Cressa color. Honed surface finish reduces light reflection. Basketweave pattern assembled from individual marble pieces. Construction uses thin-set mortar adhesion. Material: crystalline calcite marble. Cut from quarried blocks. Density typical for Carrara-type marble at 2.7 g/cm³. Water absorption 0.1-0.5%. Compressive strength 100-150 MPa.
Basketweave mosaics fit wall tile and kitchen backsplash applications. Honed finish provides slip resistance on vertical surfaces. Marble composition limits use to interior dry or wet areas with sealing. Low water absorption supports shower wall installation when grouted and sealed. Pattern interlock resists shear in moderate traffic floors. Requires level substrate and thin-set installation.
