Bathroom Niche

13 years ago

I am doing the walls in stone. At the back of the niche are glass tiles. My dilemma is that I cannot find a 45 degree corner piece to finish properly. The marble store said to have my tile installer cut the till in 2 " pieces and round the edges. HELP!

Are you referring to the bullnose piece that would cover the raw edges of tile?

We actually put the bullnose on the inside of the niche so that we don't have a picture frame effect on the outside of the niche. This is what it looks like with the bullnose on the inside of the niche. [houzz=

If we want to picture frame the niche and make it stand out we use a chair rail or pencil liner that coordinates with the tile. The tile setter would miter the corners for a finished look. Can't get our gallery to come up to show you a picture of what thay would look like.

Is the issue that your niche has a curved top or something like that?
