Petrol Blue Pastel Subway – Ceramic Wall Tile
A rich wash of indigo softened with a whisper of grey, the Petrol Blue Pastel Subway tile brings a calming modernity to classic shapes. Its satin-matte glaze catches the light gently, creating a chalky depth that reads differently from every angle—moody in shadows, quietly radiant in daylight. With its elongated 300 × 75 mm form, this tile reinvents the traditional subway with a coastal coolness ideal for South African homes.
Whether you're designing a serene splashback, a spa-like shower wall, or an atmospheric bar front, this tile lends itself to layered textures and tonal harmony. Its gently rounded edges and fine grout lines keep the look crafted and clean.
