glass tiles

Shiny wall pieces

Glass tiles are small, flat pieces of glass used as decorative building material, typically for walls, backsplashes, or accents rather than flooring.

They come in various colors, finishes, and degrees of translucency, often creating luminous effects that ceramic tiles cannot match: The bathroom featured iridescent glass tiles behind the vanity.
