Seashell Tiles in bathrooms/kitchens - practical?

7 years ago

I've been looking at Seashell Tiles to be used as a backsplash in kitchens and showers. I've read reviews where the reviewer talks about how thin the tile is and difficult to install. Are these tiles practical for usage in showers and kitchens? I'm looking at the Elite Tile Seashell Mozaic.

I am not any sort of an expert, but I googled them and they look to me like they'd be extremely difficult to clean.

You also have to look at the manufacturer's specs to see if they are even rated for this kind of application.
