The Natural Metro: Palio 10x20cm Limestone

Discover the perfect balance of classic format and organic luxury with the Palio 10x20cm Limestone Tile—a sophisticated natural stone that elevates the traditional brick tile.

Crafted from authentic Palio limestone, this tile displays a beautiful array of creamy hues, fine sand grains, and unique **seashell figuring** created over millennia. The compact **10cm x 20cm format** offers endless design possibilities, from traditional brick-bond splashbacks to intricate herringbone floors. Unlike rustic tumbled stone, this edition features a **diamond sawn edge** for clean, straight lines and a precision finish. The surface is **honed** to a smooth matte sheen, providing a tactile softness that transforms any kitchen or bathroom into a sanctuary.

⚠️ Installation & Care Tips

  • Sealing is Essential: Palio Limestone is porous and must be sealed to prevent absorption of water and stains. We recommend sealing once before grouting and once after grouting with a high-quality impregnator (e.g., Lithofin MN Stainstop).
  • Use White Adhesive: Always use a White flexible tile adhesive. Grey adhesive can show through the light-coloured limestone, causing it to look muddy or dull.
  • Natural Variation: This is a natural product. Shade, veining, and fossilisation will vary significantly. We recommend mixing tiles from different boxes to create a harmonious blend.
  • Cleaning: Use only pH-neutral cleaners specifically designed for natural stone. Avoid acidic cleaners (like vinegar) or bleach, as these will etch the surface.
