Daltile Modern Dimensions in Spa or Waterfall.

Daltile Semi-gloss in 4.25 like you have or 6x6, slightly larger. Spa or Waterfall

Daltile Natural Hues in Iceberg or Starlight (probably not a match but may blend), comes in sizes as large as 12x24"

Here they are but of course you would need to sample them all, since photographs are not reliable color wise

The color "blue wall" from https://www.bwtile.com/colors.php looks close. I like the suggestions for muti-color or white walls with blue accent.

Thank you all for your feedback!

HKO HKO & houssaon - I checked out the site. I am in New York so I would be worried about shipping tile so far, especially if it turned out not to match. That retrorenovation site has been a godsend when it came to finding replacement coloured toilets.

palimpsest - Thank you! I will check these out! It's nice they come in different sizes! These are some great colour options! I think they are a lot more fresh than the vintage.

Beth H. - These are some great suggestions. I am worried that if I do a white tile around the bathtub, it would make the bathtub itself the feature of the bathroom and I don't really want to do that. I really like the cube idea, I will check into that. I don't want to do too small because I hate cleaning grout lines, but I really love the look of what you suggested. I have a strong dislike of subway tile unless it has a crazy pattern that detracts from the shape lol.

I think my goal for this bathroom is to keep the retro coloured fixtures but to modernize it/ freshen it up with the tile, vanity and walls.

Here is the other part of the bathroom to give you a better picture of the whole space. - for the vanity it will be white white double arch doors and flat drawers, the whole space above the sinks will be a mirror with a tile border that matches that of the tub and there will be a mirrored medicine cabinet on both side walls by the sinks.

This was also a tile I was looking at but i wasn't sure if it was too light or not enough blue.

I just saved this tile - is it somewhat like Beth's idea?

missted,,,the bathtub will not take center stage if you do white tiles. you have the blue fixtures, the busy floor, , and then you want to do the wall mural. that's a lot of color and movement. The scallop tile just does not go.

If you want to do that agate looking tile you posted, above, that would be fine, but I wouldn't do that wall mural too. way too much.

these are the perfect colors for your bath. just enough blue. but it will not go w/that mural. besides, that mural is more aqua.

now, if you want to do that mural, then get a white bathtub and do this tile. it's a perfect match

why don't you look into the larger hex tiles? 8" or so? that way, you can do your blue and white, and since the tiles are larger, you won't have the grout lines.

this is very retro looking and would fit in w/your scheme

I love either one of these designs.

as far as too much grout, you could do the urethane stain proof grout and not have to worry about it. These colors would look so cool w/your bathtub

tilebar.com has these, Exagoni Perla Matte

Be careful of blue overload. Can’t tell from the pictures what your floor actually is and what color exactly. Needs to be considered more. The above pics are with white tubs and sinks and countertops.

i do to. and I can't find a link for who makes them. it's from BlackLacquer design, but no info on source. I did find a similar one from AliBaba.

I saw these scales from Pratt and Larson. the blues are more subtle.

however, I still like the gradient hex tiles best.

And yes, it would be so much better if you could do the white tub.

As a mild disclaimer, Retrorenovation originates from Massachusetts which has very strict guidelines about lead and asbestos abatement. While both hazards are genuine, the body of evidence for lead exposure is from pediatric ingestion of degraded paint surfaces, or chronic inhalation of dust from degraded paint surfaces; and asbestos from chronic occupational exposure. (Much of the lead date from kids also relates to the development of the Pica eating disorder, in which the individual develops a taste for the lead paint and actually seeks it out). Just something to keep in mind.

If you want to stay with something which is more historically appropriate, (Which is not necessary, but is also something that will always look "correct" with what you have, as opposed to newer trends like above which will come and go...Your bathroom has already come and gone, so renovating in something that is already gone as well kinda makes sense)

Daltile Coastal Keystones

Mediterranean Mist. The last would esp. be appropriate for the floor

Tropical Thunder comes in all formats. A bit darker mix.

Palimpset...I've already posted the smaller mosaic options. she said she didn't want all of the grout lines. That's why I suggested the larger hex tiles.

These would be for floor only.

Thank you everyone so much for your input! I hope to officially decide and buy tiles this week so we can get this project started.

HKO HKO - I'll keep the company in mind!, and thank you and palimpsest so much for pointing out the potential lead hazards. I had no idea. I am definitely going to check into this and re-glaze if necessary.

everdebz - I actually really like this tile, but I brought home a similar coloured tile that didn't work well in that space.

Beth H. - I'm willing to sacrifice the wall mural for a painted wall if I have the right tile. We currently have 9" white hexagon tiled floor in our kitchen/laundry/hallway so I'm not sure how I feel about putting it in the bathroom as well because I'm really over the floor.

I do love those scales you posted. I am going to check the local store to see if they have them or something similar in stock. I would like to just use them as an accent either a stripe down the wall or around it.

Definitely leaning towards the agate tile or the scales.

Thank you!

ldecor54 - Yeah I tend to go overload on the colours. It's hard to find a balance sometimes.

as for reglazing the tub, I really wouldn't worry about lead ingestion, if that's your concern. reglazing is a short term thing. lasts about 3-4 years before it starts to peel. either live w/that blue tub, or, remove it now and get a white one. once the tile work is in around it, it's near impossible to pull out safely and replace.

And I thought you were keeping the floor tile. But if you do decide to switch, the penny round would be great.

Thank you everyone for your input, I really appreciate it! I ended up going with the original tile I posted. An accent stripe of the scales down with the rest as the light blue. I will also be using the scales as a backsplash around the sinks in the other part of the bathroom. I'll post a picture when it's finished!
