Bluegum Obsidian Penny Mosaic 305x322, up close.
Matt takes the shine out of Bluegum Obsidian, a black penny round mosaic on a 305 x 322 mm sheet. Each disc still has a cushion edge, which shows as a faint rim of shadow, so a wall of it has relief and a velvety depth with little glare.
Use it as a splashback beside dark cabinetry or on a feature wall. Warm timber and brass sit well against the soft black, and the matt face keeps reflections low.

Grout colour
Nearest Mapei colour
120 Black
Mapei Ultracolor Plus, for joints up to 20 mm. This tile mixes colours, so the grout follows its main colour.
Mapei makes no colour close to this glaze. This one sits nearest in depth, so the joint reads as a shadow line.
Next closest: 149 Volcano Sand
Measured from the tile photo against Mapei's colour chart and checked against the photo. Screens show colour differently, so check the grout against a real tile before you buy. Mapei colour chart
Laying notes
Keep a 2 to 3 mm joint and hold the same gap between sheets so the seams disappear. Lay a dry run first, and set out from the centre of the wall so the cut pieces at each edge match.
Order the full quantity at once
Shade can shift from one production batch to the next, so order your whole quantity, plus the allowance for cuts, in one go.
