Like ancient stone. On our no budget diy home build, these are definitely worth the spend. All packaged great with no broken tiles. They are going in our master bathroom which is all concrete colors and this matches perfect. There are some of the same pattern but spreading them out you'll never notice. Use a gray toned grout so they look just like the promo photos. We had to cut them longways to fit around the room edge, but we are re-using the cut pieces as a border up the wall because they have the scalloped edge. Will update with photos when we can.
