    Yeah, I'm trying to find-out what tile this is. Have been looking for similar tile to do in my bathroom; but, can't find anything remotely close. Anyone know what this tile is or where we can find it?

    I tried as well and I got some really great tile that resembles this from Lowe's. Its called Clorinda White its Ceramic 12x14.

    Firefightra - I really love this bathroom. Can I ask how much it cost to ship the tiles to the US from Toronto? I would be ordering the tile for one bathtub surround and the floor (standard 5x8 bathroom). Also, did you have to pay any sort of import/custom tax? I just called the store and they are going to send me samples, but the cost to ship the samples is already $70. Just wondering how much it would cost to ship all the tiles. Thanks!

    Camilla - I actually live only 1 hour from the store in Toronto and we drove there and bought it straight from the store. No shipping, no custom tax, etc. You can always call Deco Tile and ask them for a quote just to tile your space. Also, ask them who they would use to ship it as many delivery companies charge a brokerage fee on top of their delivery fee. Some companies charge an outrageous brokerage fee and it can amount to 1/2 the price of the item(s) you paid for. You should then call US customs and ask them how much they would charge to have the tile imported. Here in Ontario, Canada we pay 13% on all our purchased items; but, I believe if you are American you can get that reversed...I think you have to initially pay for it and then apply for a reimbursement. Just make sure to do your homework as you don't want any nasty surprises. Trust me, my husband and I have learned the hard way. If you live close enough to drive to Toronto, it would be worth it. Also, as an aside, just be sure to ask Deco Tile for the best price they can give you. It might pay off for you. Good-luck.

    Thank you, Firefightra. You are so lucky you are within driving distance of Toronto. I'm in California (unfortunately). Guess I will wait to get my samples and then take it from there. Don't forget to post photos of your bathroom when it is done. Can't wait to see it!

    Camilia - Yes, we are fortunate...California is a long way away. Hopefully, you can get the tile at a decent price. You have the name of the tile, maybe you can see if your local tile stores can get it or if they have it. We did have a hard time finding similar tile; but, if you get the sample you may be in luck trying to find it or something similar somewhere else. As for posting our bathroom, well it will be similar to this one! We did a couple differences, though. We went with the cadillac of bath tubs and splurged on a fantastic, jetted, whirlpool tub....can you say "Ahhhh." We also didn't have room to do the glass cupboard/shelf unit on the wall beside the tub; so, to carry the glass theme we had a glass countertop made for us that matched our existing glass bowl sink. My husband will make the vanity himself too, so that should complete the look! I can't wait for it to be done. Take care and good-luck!

    I am renovating a small master bathroom that backs to another bathroom. We don’t want to combine the bathrooms into one w the hallway bath.

    I am looking for a deep soaking tub. What model tub is this? Also looking at Japanese soaking tubs, but the bathroom is small 4 feet 6” by 8 feet by 5”. The part that has the vanity and toilet is 5 feet 4 “. Then the wall continues on for 3 feet for the stand in shower w no tub. The shower stall is 3 feet by 3 feet 10” ( plumbing is 8” so 3’10” left for area to shower in so this subtracted out.

    And yes my husband is using the shower as a closet! Thanks.
