The Many Versatile Uses of Quintessa Mosaics

A true leader in texture and tone, mosaics have captured beauty and elegance for decades. The earliest dates of mosaics travel back in time to the second half of the third millennium BC, where they were used for temple building in Abra, Mesopotamia! Since then, the Greek and Roman empires turned to mosaic patterns and styling to tell stories and draw beauty into their home. No matter which time period in history you study, you will always find the alluring storytelling techniques of mosaics in them.

There are many ways to create a beautiful mosaic piece, especially with the vast range of our Quintessa Mosaics designs. Our mosaic collection provides a variety of cuts, styles, colors and pebbles that make your home unique no matter which ones you choose. With a myriad of options, it has easy to see how tough of a decision it can be to make a final call of which mosaic design you want. When choosing your mosaic, it is important to detail which purpose you are going to use it for. If you are using it for a heavy traffic area, you will want to use a tile that will not hold on to dirt and provides high durability. Areas like the kitchen and bathroom are prime examples of rooms you might want to consider dark and durable rocks for. If you are using it to be admired, like accent walls or designs, then you can use a pristine, unique rock that will capture the eye of anybody who walks by it.

After you chose your purpose, you will want to consider the colors and style you want your mosaic to be. Quintessa Mosaics provides different styles to fit all your design needs.
