Stoneglass Opalo Negro is a dramatic charcoal-black and smoky steel-blue mosaic with subtle metallic accents.
The colour blends deep charcoal-black with smoky steel-blue, lifted by subtle metallic accents that catch the light, so the surface reads bold and industrial rather than a flat black. The steel-blue and metallic notes give it a cool, hard-edged depth, like patinated metal or dark steel. Across a wall the black and steel-blue pieces shift and glint as the light moves, making a strong, moody feature. It works with brass and gold fixtures, timber, concrete, pale stone and bold, industrial or masculine schemes.

Where it works
Mosaic is a feature material, and Stoneglass Opalo Negro's charcoal-and-steel-blue with metallic accents is bold and industrial. It makes a strong feature on bathroom walls, splashbacks, shower niches, vanity walls and bar fronts, where the dark, metallic look can lead, and it lines a pool or spa for a deep, moody, steel-toned water look. The small format lets it follow curves and wrap corners in a way sheet tiles cannot, which is why mosaics suit pools and rounded walls. The metallic accents read especially well against warm metals like brass and in raking light, where they catch and glint. One practical point for pools: a dark surface reads deep and dramatic but absorbs more heat in sun, so it is worth thinking about. Whether this particular mosaic is rated for pool and full wet-area use depends on the material and backing, so that is worth confirming. The recommended applications are still being confirmed, so contact us and we can advise on the right fit for your job.
Choosing a finish
Available finishes: TBC
Mosaics usually come face-mounted or mesh-backed on sheets for easier laying, and the individual pieces may be glossy, matte or a mix. A glossy finish maximises the metallic glint and reflection, while a matte finish reads more like dark patinated steel. Grout colour makes a big difference with mosaic, since there is so much of it: a charcoal or black grout keeps the dark, seamless, industrial look and lets the metallic accents lead, while a pale grout would break it into a stark grid. A dark grout is almost always the right call here. If you are unsure which finish, backing or grout suits your project, give us a call and we can talk it through.
Order a sample
Order a sample to see Stoneglass Opalo Negro in your own light before you commit. A dark, metallic-accented mosaic shifts a lot with the light and the angle, so it is worth seeing a full sheet on site against your joinery and fixtures, in the light it will actually sit in.
