Box Content:
Vanilla Onyx / Green Onyx Checkerboard Tile is a tonal, stone-forward checkerboard that feels layered rather than graphic. Vanilla Onyx brings a creamy base with gentle movement, while Green Onyx adds depth and natural variation with subtle translucency. Together, the grid reads sophisticated and organic—perfect when you want a checkerboard moment that isn’t high-contrast.
Where it works best
- Floors: entryways, kitchens, powder rooms, hallways, boutique commercial spaces
- Walls: backsplashes and feature walls, fireplace surrounds (wall application)
- Design detail: use a checkerboard mosaic format in wet areas (shower floors, transitions) when you need slope and drainage
Choosing a size
- 4" x 4" — more texture and a tighter rhythm; great for smaller rooms and detailed layouts
- 6" x 6" — classic scale for kitchens, entries, and bathrooms
- 12" x 12" — calmer, more expansive look for larger floors and open plans
Design notes
- Tonal checkerboard: choose grout close to the lighter onyx for a blended look, or a gentle contrast to define the squares.
- Layout tip: center the pattern on key sightlines (entry door, vanity center, island run) for the cleanest finish.
- Natural variation: onyx varies by piece—expect movement, shade shifts, and character.
Natural stone care
- Sealing: natural stone typically benefits from sealing. Your installer can recommend the right sealer for your application.
- Cleaning: use a pH-neutral cleaner and avoid acidic or abrasive products.
- Sample first: onyx can read differently in your lighting—samples help confirm tone and contrast.
