Silver Glass Brick: Metallic Vitreum Argentum Rectangle 10 x 30cm

A slim 10 x 30cm glass brick in shimmering silver Argentum — Metallic Vitreum from Hyperion Tiles, your official Fired Earth stockist.

This elongated glass rectangle is backed with a lustrous colour foil and finished with a gently faceted face that catches and reflects the light. Laid in a classic brick bond or stacked vertically, it brings a soft, reflective sheen to a splashback, shower or bathroom wall.

The cool silver-grey Argentum tone keeps the look contemporary. Non-porous glass wipes clean in a moment and never needs sealing.

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

To request a return, contact Hyperion within 14 days of delivery. For eligible online consumer cancellations, you have a further 14 days after telling us to send the goods back. Contact us for the correct return address; your statutory cancellation does not depend on our authorisation.

Additional supplier returns have their own eligibility rules, charges and exclusions. These do not override statutory cancellation rights or rights for faulty goods. See our refund policy and supplier return guidance before arranging a return.

Product Frequently Asked Questions

Is the silver finish a paint or a foil?

It is a high-grade metallic foil backing that is bonded to the glass. This provides a much higher level of reflectivity and "mirror" effect than standard silver paint, giving the tile its signature luxury depth.

Will the silver tarnish or rust?

No. Because the metallic layer is located behind the glass and sealed with a protective coating, it is shielded from oxygen and moisture. Unlike actual silver metal, these tiles will maintain their shine indefinitely.

Can I use these behind a heat source?

Yes, they are suitable for use as kitchen splashbacks behind hobs. Glass is naturally heat-resistant, but as with all glass tiles, we recommend leaving a small expansion gap (2-3mm) where the tile meets the countertop or cabinetry.

Can these be laid in a herringbone pattern?

Absolutely. The 10x30cm dimensions are perfect for a herringbone layout, which creates a dynamic, light-shifting effect that is very popular in modern design.

Installation & Care Tips

Installation & care

  • Adhesive & Grout: Fix with a white glass adhesive to avoid shadowing through the translucent glass, and finish with a fine, colour-matched grout.
  • Layout Options: Works in a classic 50% brick bond, a stacked vertical or a one-third offset — dry-lay a row first to set out your joints.
  • Cleaning: Wipe with warm water and a mild cleaner. Glass is non-porous, needs no sealing and resists splashes and steam; avoid abrasive pads.
