Fish scale tile is popping up in all sorts of unexpected spaces, and we couldn’t be more delighted. Taking form in our ever-popular Ogee Drop Tile, this playfully scalloped pattern is beloved by by all. What’s even better? It looks great no matter how you glaze it. Today we’ve collected some of our favorite fish scale and color combos.
Blues

Green hues add an earthier undertone to this underwater-inspired pattern. We also can’t get enough of the Little Mermaid vibes from this cozy yet lush shower.
