Specialist tile retailer Porcelain Superstore has launched a trio of opulent new tiles to offer homeowners a stylish slice of luxury living.

iffany Pearl, Savoy Oro and Lavish Gold are the three new additions to the Porcelain Superstore line-up.
Typified
by an elegant marble-effect, these large format tiles exude glamour and sophistication. And, thanks to advances in manufacturing, all three are actually made from porcelain – meaning they are much kinder on the bank balance while still radiating all the luxury of real marble.
Opulence and luxury Abbas Youssefi, Director of Porcelain
Superstore, says: “Our new collection of marble-effect, opulent tiles ooze luxury. They beg to be admired and truly inject that wow factor wherever they are placed.
“It’s no surprise that marble is the go-to material for five-star bathrooms, but for homeowners, this can work out pretty pricey. “This trio of tiles offer that same high-end finish, but with all the benefits of porcelain tile. They are extremely hard-wearing and easy to maintain, so they will look fabulous for years to come.” A tile of opulent distinctions? Must be Lavish Gold! With a sumptuous
polished finish, the super large sizing and those eye-catching golden veins, these tiles are truly one of a kind. They’re ritzy, maximalist and sure to make an impact.
And that is exactly why we’re drawn to Lavish in the first place - it’s the very epitome of more-is-more design.
Perfect for elevating an everyday
bathroom into something a little more exquisite, or for adding flair to any floor.

“Elegance and sophistication are the hallmarks of the marble that has inspired this collection, from Italian manufacturer Marazzi. The Apuan Alps and their famous white marble quarries provided the perfect location for a car chase in the James Bond movie Quantum of Solace.” Peter Vann adds: “Marble quarried from the Apuan Alps has been a key architectural feature since ancient times but modern printing technology means we can achieve this classical look in sustainable porcelain.”
