Product story

Luminous White Marble: Avalon Tumbled Bianco 40.6 x 40.6cm

A pure, light-filled tumbled marble in a classic 40.6 x 40.6cm square — Avalon Bianco from Hyperion Tiles, your official Fired Earth stockist.

Inspired by the timeless marbles of Italy, Avalon Bianco pairs a luminous white ground with the softest tracery of grey and warm beige veining. The tumbled surface and gently eased edges give the stone a relaxed, heritage character from the moment it is laid — far warmer underfoot than polished marble, and beautifully suited to a calm, light-filled bathroom or an elegant kitchen floor.

A natural quarried marble, 1.2cm thick and supplied per tile, Avalon Bianco is specified for internal walls and floors — including showers, fireplaces and over underfloor heating — and should be sealed to keep it looking its best.

Delivery

In-stock orders are dispatched within 3–5 working days, with express options available. Special-order and made-to-order ranges carry their own lead time, shown on the product page and confirmed when you order. Pallet, slab, large-format and bathware orders travel on a specialist off-load service — we confirm the timescale and book a date that suits you before dispatch.

Delivery is calculated at checkout from your order and postcode (we do not offer showroom collection) and UK delivery is free on orders over £1,000 on most ranges. For pallet deliveries please tell us about access issues in advance — low trees or bridges, narrow roads or gateways, gravel drives, or no turning or unloading space — as a re-delivery charge may apply if we cannot complete delivery.

When your order arrives

Please check your delivery as soon as it arrives. Once goods are unloaded they become the responsibility of the receiver, so if anything isn’t right, contact us within three working days and we’ll put it right quickly.

Returns

Unused, complete orders can be returned within 14 days of delivery; as tiles are picked and packed to your quantity, a restocking fee of 20–30% applies depending on the range. Fired Earth ranges are returned through Fired Earth’s own returns process, and special-order items are non-returnable unless damaged on delivery or faulty. Ordering a free sample first is the simplest way to avoid a return.

Product Frequently Asked Questions

What does "Tumbled" mean?

The "tumbled" finish means the tiles have been mechanically processed to soften the edges and surface. Instead of sharp, square corners and a high gloss, you get slightly rounded edges and a matte, worn texture. This gives the stone an antique, heritage look that feels softer and more organic.

Do I need to seal this tile?

Yes, absolutely. Avalon Bianco is natural marble, which is porous. To protect it from water marks, shampoo spills, or kitchen stains, you must seal it with a high-quality stone sealer during installation and re-seal it periodically.

Is it suitable for Underfloor Heating (UFH)?

Yes. Marble is a dense natural stone that is fantastic at conducting and retaining heat. Using it over UFH makes the floor warm and comfortable underfoot, which is perfect for bathrooms.

Why is there "Extreme Variation"?

Marble is a natural material quarried from the earth, not a factory-printed ceramic. "Extreme Variation" means you should expect significant differences between tiles—some may be pure white, others may have heavy grey veining or beige markings. This variety is what gives natural stone its beauty and value.

Can I use it in a shower?

Yes, it is suitable for shower walls and floors. However, because it is a white stone, it is vital to ensure the tanking (waterproofing) behind the tile is perfect, and that the stone is thoroughly sealed to prevent water absorption.

Why buy Fired Earth tiles from Hyperion Tiles?

We are an authorised Fired Earth retailer with a family-run approach. This means you get the same premium products but with faster, personal technical support, expert advice on sealers and adhesives, and free delivery on orders over £1,000.

Installation & Care Tips

Marble Care & Installation

  • Seal before and after grouting: Marble is porous — apply a quality impregnating stone sealer before grouting and again once the grout has cured, to guard against staining and water absorption.
  • Stone-safe adhesive: Fix with a flexible, stone-safe adhesive; use a white adhesive under pale Bianco so it never shadows through the stone.
  • Clean gently: Wipe with warm water and a pH-neutral stone cleaner only — never acidic or vinegar-based products, which etch and dull natural marble.
  • Blend the boxes: Shuffle tiles from several boxes as you lay so the natural veining and tone fall evenly across the surface.
