Vanguard Kara Grey is a cool glacier-grey mosaic with misty blue undertones and smoky charcoal veining.
The colour is a cool glacier-grey, softened by misty blue undertones and run through with smoky charcoal veining, so it reads soft and sophisticated with a naturally marbled movement rather than a flat grey. The blue undertones keep it cool and calm while the veining gives it depth. Across a wall or floor it reads refined and contemporary, a cool grey with gentle marbled movement. It works with chrome and brass fixtures, pale stone, timber, white joinery and cool, contemporary schemes.

Where it works
Mosaic is a feature and detail material, and Vanguard Kara Grey's cool, marbled glacier-grey is soft and refined. It suits bathroom walls and floors, shower niches, splashbacks and feature panels, where a cool grey with gentle movement belongs, and it can line a pool or spa for a soft, cool, marbled water look. The small format and mesh backing make it a good choice for shower bases and curved or shaped areas, since the pieces follow a fall to the drain and wrap corners in a way sheet tiles cannot. The blue undertones and charcoal veining read especially well in daylight and moving water. 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 lifts the cool grey and brings out the veining, while a matte finish reads softer and more natural. Grout colour makes a big difference with mosaic, since there is so much of it: a mid grey grout close to the tone keeps the soft, marbled look and lets the veining lead, while a paler or darker grout picks out the pieces. A grout close to the tone is usually 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.
