What Makes Polished Amber Pebble Tile Unique?

Amber pebble tiles are made from naturally sourced river stones that have been tumbled and polished to reveal a rich, golden-brown glow. Their organic shapes and subtle variations in tone mimic the natural environment, while the polished finish enhances light reflection and visual interest.

Key features:

  • Smooth, glossy surface that reflects ambient light

  • Rich amber tones with natural variation

  • Comfortable underfoot, even in barefoot zones

  • Suitable for wet and dry environments
