Product story

A Ribbon of Reflected Light: Mississippi Clear Glass Highlight Strip

Part of the Glassworks clear glass collection, brought to you by Hyperion Tiles.

The Mississippi Clear Glass Highlight Strip is a slender decorative border in clear glass, designed to draw a crisp line of light through a tiled wall. Named for the broad, unhurried majesty of America's greatest river, it frames, divides and lifts a scheme with the quiet sparkle only glass can give.

Measuring 298 x 24mm, it sits beautifully alongside metro, ceramic or stone field tiles, or run in a band to define a splashback or shower recess. The polished clear body reflects the colour of whatever sits behind it.

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

What is this piece for?

This is a finishing and detailing piece rather than a field tile. It is used to close an exposed edge, cap the top of a half-tiled wall, form a border, or turn a corner neatly, so the raw edge of the glass is never left on show.

Using the matching trim from the same range is what makes a tiled wall look properly finished rather than simply stopped.

How many do I need?

Trims and strips are counted by linear length, not by area. Measure the total run you need to finish in metres, divide by the length of one piece, and add around 10% for cuts and for the odd breakage.

If you send us your measurements and a photo or sketch of the wall, we will work the quantity out for you and check you have not missed an external corner or a return.

Does it match the main tile exactly?

It is made to coordinate with its parent range, so the colour and finish are matched as closely as the manufacturing process allows. With hand-finished and antiqued glass there can be a slight difference in tone between a trim and a field tile, and between production batches.

For that reason we always recommend ordering your trims at the same time as your main tiles, from the same batch.

How are these pieces cut and fixed?

Fix with the same white, glass-rated adhesive you are using for the main tiles. Grey adhesive will show through the glass.

Cut with a glass cutter and score-and-snap rather than a tile saw wherever you can, as the narrow section chips easily. Mitre external corners for the neatest result, and keep any factory-finished edge facing outward where it will be seen.

How many trim pieces will I need?

Each piece measures 298 x 24 x 8mm, and trims are counted by length rather than by area.

Measure the total run you need to finish in metres, divide by the length of one piece, and add around 10% for cuts and the occasional breakage. Remember to allow an extra piece for each external corner or return.

Send us your measurements or a quick sketch and we will work the quantity out for you. We always recommend ordering trims at the same time as your main tiles so they come from the same batch.

Installation & Care Tips

Installation & care

  • Adhesive — always use a WHITE glass tile adhesive; translucent clear glass shows a grey or dark adhesive straight through, so white keeps it bright.
  • Where to use — non-porous and wipe-clean, it is ideal for kitchen splashbacks, shower and bathroom walls and other wet areas.
  • Cutting & edges — score and snap with a glass cutter (a standard wet saw tends to chip the edge); take care with cut and exposed edges and finish them neatly at external corners.
  • Cleaning — no sealing needed; wipe with a soft cloth and a non-abrasive glass cleaner.
