Tile Collection Chicago 3x3 Mosaic Tile State Street

No city in America is more closely associated with brick than Chicago — from Prohibition-era speakeasies on Rush Street to the manufacturing centers of the west side, brick is a celebrated piece of the Windy City's architectural heritage. The Chicago Collection recreates that authentic look and feel in a durable porcelain tile, with a rich, timeworn visual that brings urban character indoors and out.

This 3x3 mosaic format brings the Chicago brick-look color and texture to a small-scale tile in the State Street colorway, well suited to backsplashes, accent walls, and detail work where a mosaic pattern adds visual interest. Through-body, unglazed porcelain construction with substantial (V4) shade variation delivers an authentic, worn-brick look.

Is this size and colorway still available, given some sourcing notes mention State Street discontinuations in mosaic?
Worth confirming directly with your supplier before quoting this to a customer — one third-party retailer notes State Street was discontinued in 3x3 staggered mosaic specifically, though this may not reflect your supplier's current stock status.

What's the visual difference between a staggered and straight-set mosaic layout?
A staggered layout offsets each row like a running-bond brick pattern, adding movement to the surface, while a straight-set grid keeps rows aligned for a cleaner, more orderly look.

Can this mosaic be combined with larger State Street field tile for a feature design?
Yes — using the 3x3 mosaic as a border, inset, or accent band alongside larger-format State Street tile is a common layout approach.

Does a smaller mosaic tile need more grout overall than a larger tile?
Yes — more grout lines per square foot means more total grout coverage, which also means more maintenance and cleaning surface area over time compared to a larger-format tile.
