Shaw Kaleidoscope 4x8 Glossy Handmade-Look Porcelain Brick Tile

Shaw Kaleidoscope Brick 4x8 (style 572TS) is a 3.94" x 7.87" glazed porcelain brick tile with a glossy, handmade look. The small brick shape is what separates it from the Kaleidoscope hex and 8x8 squares: it can be laid in a classic offset, a vertical stack, a herringbone or a basketweave, so one tile can give a backsplash a traditional or a graphic feel. Random (V4) shade variation and a reflective gloss surface mimic the tone shifts of hand-glazed tile, and nine colors range from Pearl to Obsidian. Shaw rates it frost resistant, and it is produced in Italy.

Best for: Kitchen backsplashes, bathroom accent walls, shower walls, bar fronts, fireplace surrounds and laundry room walls.

Colors

• Pearl 00100: a soft pearly white, the go-to for a bright, timeless brick backsplash.
• Lemon 00200: a gentle soft yellow that adds sunny color without overpowering a kitchen.
• Verdant 00300: a deep, saturated green made for a statement wall.
• Sage 00310: a muted sage green that feels calm next to natural wood.
• Indigo 00400: a strong blue that brings a blue-and-white kitchen to life.
• Powder Blue 00410: a pale powder blue for airy baths and laundry rooms.
• Ashen 00500: an ash gray neutral that suits modern kitchens with stainless appliances.
• Marigold 00600: a warm marigold tone for a cheerful, retro-leaning accent.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can Kaleidoscope 4x8 brick tile be laid in herringbone? Yes. Kaleidoscope Brick 4x8 has a 2:1 proportion (3.94" x 7.87"), which suits herringbone, basketweave, vertical stack and classic offset patterns on a backsplash or accent wall.

Is glossy Kaleidoscope Brick 4x8 good for a kitchen backsplash? Yes. Kaleidoscope Brick 4x8 is impervious glazed porcelain with a gloss finish that wipes clean easily, which makes it practical behind a range or sink.

Why do Kaleidoscope Brick tiles vary in color? Kaleidoscope Brick 4x8 has random (V4) shade variation, the highest level, so tones shift from tile to tile to imitate handmade glazes; blend tiles from several boxes as you install.

Should I choose the Kaleidoscope brick or the hex? Kaleidoscope Brick 4x8 suits traditional and linear patterns, while the Kaleidoscope Hex 6x7 offers a honeycomb shape in the same nine colors for a more playful wall.

What grout color goes with Kaleidoscope Indigo brick? With Kaleidoscope Brick 4x8 in Indigo, white grout gives a crisp blue-and-white look, while a gray grout softens the pattern.
