Artistic Tile - Ziva Collection

 

“Ziva is a dramatic statement, but not in a trendy way,” says Nancy Epstein, CEO and Founder of Artistic Tile who designed the distinct look of Ziva and traveled to India to work with artisans on its creation. “Ziva's unique finishing technique and excellent craftsmanship puts it just a few steps ahead.” 

The collection has two patterns—Lotus and Leaves—and each are available in two colorways. Leaves is available in white Thassos marble as well as Lake Blue. Lotus is available in Gris and Bianco Carrara. The new collection is offered in any of Artistic Tile’s eight showrooms or through their authorized dealers around the county. 

Susan's notes: I saw this tile at KBIS in April 2011 and it's stunning. I believe this can be thought of as a classic design as it is a one-of-a-kind pattern. Anytime you can incorporate an original piece or design into the kitchen as a whole...you're safe from trends and prematurely dating your kitchen or bath design. That said, there is a mini trend in tile toward this type of deep (and bold) "relief" pattern. It is on the periphery of tile trends...unlike mosaic tile, for example, which has been a strong trend for a number of years.
