Mosaic Tile: How It’s Made
According to history, the earliest mosaics were made from shells, shards of precious natural stones, and other readily available materials. They were made by hand in Mesopotamia, Ancient Greece and Rome. Thankfully, the process is much easier today and the materials only got more interesting with time.
Because mosaics today can be made from so many different materials, the creation process varies depending on the ingredients. A good rule of thumb is that mosaic tile are anything on a mesh sheet backing with individual pieces smaller than 3-6” shapes. Those mosaic patterns can be brickset, stackset, hexagon, linear interlocking, penny round, octagon/diamond, basketweave, and more.
