Sold As Box Nero Marquina Honed Hexagon Marble Wall & Floor Tiles create a strong black-and-white surface with fine natural veining. A smooth matt finish softens the dark background, making the hexagonal format a distinctive choice for bathroom walls, kitchen splashbacks and appropriately specified interior floors. Nero Marquina hexagons suit an interior where black stone is the focal point. The pale veins provide detail within each tile, while the repeated hexagon edges create a clear decorative rhythm around a basin or above a kitchen worktop. Natural Colour, Honed Finish & Hexagon Character White lines vary in strength and direction against the black background. A dry layout helps avoid isolated clusters of heavily veined pieces and lets you judge how the vein pattern interacts with the six-sided joints. The honed face has a smooth, low-sheen appearance. It presents the natural markings with softer reflections than a polished version of the stone. Why Choose Nero Marquina Honed Hexagon Marble Tiles? Distinctive design: Black marble and hexagon geometry create a compact statement surface that can anchor an otherwise pale room. Natural variation: Individual veins and tonal differences give the finished installation its own pattern rather than an identical repeat. Surface character: A honed face gives a smooth matt or low-sheen appearance for a quieter interior scheme. Layout choice: The six-sided format creates an interlocking geometric pattern without a separate decorative border. Where to Use Nero Marquina Honed Hexagon Marble Tiles Bathroom walls and vanity areas: Use Nero Marquina Honed Hexagon Marble Tiles behind a basin or as a larger stone wall, letting the geometric layout provide the focal detail. Kitchen and interior feature areas: Introduce the stone above a worktop or on an interior feature wall. Plan cuts around sockets and fittings, and wipe cooking splashes promptly using a suitable stone-care routine. Appropriately specified interior floors: Consider the selected format for a bathroom, entrance or other interior floor only where the substrate, installation method and required slip resistance have been assessed for that location. Wet walls require suitable waterproofing behind the tiles. Bathroom and shower floors need a separate suitability and slip-resistance assessment; the honed finish alone is not a slip rating. Confirm the specification before choosing the stone for a wet floor. Tile Size, Box Coverage & Project Planning The main tile format is 203 x 176 x 10 mm, supplied 14 pieces per box with approximately 0.5 m² coverage. Check the selected purchase or sample option before ordering. Allow for cuts, wastage and spare pieces, particularly around the edges and corners of a hexagon layout. Measure the complete area and discuss grout colour before fixing. A closer shade softens the hexagon joints, while a contrasting joint makes the geometry more visible. Plan how the six-sided pattern meets straight borders, corners and sockets; the layout determines the cutting allowance. Installation & Sealing Install Nero Marquina Honed Hexagon Marble Tiles over a correctly prepared substrate. Choose adhesive and grout compatible with the marble and the intended wall or floor application. Natural marble is porous and generally benefits from a compatible impregnating sealer, including pre-grout protection where recommended. Follow the installer's and manufacturers' guidance on preparation, fixing, sealing and curing before putting the area into use. Caring for Nero Marquina Honed Hexagon Marble Clean with a pH-neutral product formulated for natural stone and a soft cloth or mop. Wipe spills promptly and avoid vinegar, acidic cleaners, harsh descalers and abrasive products, which can etch or scratch marble. Follow the sealer manufacturer's maintenance and resealing guidance. Sealing helps reduce absorption but does not prevent acid etching. Design Ideas & Samples Pair Nero Marquina with white sanitaryware, warm oak or restrained brass details. Dark grout gives a more continuous black field, while a pale joint makes the hexagon pattern much more prominent. Check the chosen grout on a sample area. Check the selected sample option before ordering and view it alongside your fittings in the room's own lighting. A sample helps assess colour, veining and finish, but natural variation means it cannot represent every delivered tile exactly.
