Royal Lavender Marble:

1) Basic info

Royal Lavender wall tiles are cut from small size purple Marble blocks, instead of from big size slabs – to save cost. People use 2cm (18mm) or say 3/4 inches thick slabs for living space, foyer or entryway feature wall, accent wall, and fireplace walling panels and hearth slabs. While 1cm or 3/8 inches and 12mm or 1/2 inches thin tiles for kitchen and bathroom backsplashes, shower walls and floors.

2) Fabricator and Installer advice for Royal Lavender Marble Wall Tiles

1. Design Advice for 12x12 Hex Royal Lavender Purple Marble Wall Tiles

• Accent Walls: Use them for a focal point-e.g., a living room fireplace wall, bedroom headboard wall, or bathroom vanity backdrop. The hex shape adds visual interest, while the lavender hue brings soft luxury without overwhelming neutral spaces (white, beige, light gray walls/furniture).

• Bathrooms/Kitchens: Pair with matte white subway tiles (for a contrast) in a kitchen backsplash or bathroom shower wall-lavender's warmth balances cool whites. Avoid full-room coverage (may feel intense); mix with 20-30% lavender hex tiles.

• Lighting: Install warm white (2700K-3000K) wall sconces or recessed lights near the tiles-marble's natural veining will glow, enhancing the purple tone. Avoid cool blue lighting (can make lavender look dull).

• Hardware/Decor: Match with brass or gold fixtures (faucets, drawer pulls, mirror frames)-they complement lavender's softness. Add neutral textiles (linen curtains, beige rugs) to ground the bold tile.

2. Key Tips Before Buying/Installing/Maintaining

Buying:

 • Slab Consistency: Request a sample pack to check veining/color uniformity-marble is natural, so slight variations are normal, but avoid tiles with   extreme differences (may look disjointed).

 • Thickness: Choose 10-12mm thick tiles (sturdy for walls; thinner tiles risk cracking during installation).

 • Sealer Pre-Treatment: Ask if tiles are pre-sealed-unfinished marble absorbs stains easily; pre-sealed options save installation time.

Installation:

• Professional Help: Hire a tiler experienced with marble (it's softer than ceramic; improper cutting/drilling causes chips).

• Backer Board: Use cement backer board (not drywall) in wet areas (showers/backsplashes)-prevents moisture damage.

• Grout Color: Pick light gray or white grout-dark grout can clash with lavender and highlight hex edges; use sanded grout for gaps ≥1/8 inch.
