ANN SACKS® Benton Mosaics - An Artful Expression in Tile Design

PORTLAND, Ore (October 1, 2017) – The longstanding ANN SACKS Benton Mosaic collection has added two new designs to its distinctive series. Joining the earlier Benton Braid and Circle is Clara and Aletta. Clara is an illusionary geometric-inspired tile of polished and honed marbles while the Aletta design, which means “winged” in Latin, features a stylized floral shape.

Employing waterjet technology to expertly cut the stones into Clara and Aletta’s intricate patterns are offered in-stock four ways beautifully paired in complementing marbles:

  • Aletta comes standard in four marble choices: White Thassos with Shell; Carrara with Bardiglio; Carrara with Nero Marquina and singular Calacatta Borghini

  • Clara is available in two marble choices: a mix of polished and honed Calacatta Borghini; White Thassos with Shell; Carrara with Bardiglio; and, Nero Marquina (shown).

The natural variation in color, tone and veining all add to the remarkable depth and beauty with the expertly cut pieces mesh-mounted to produce netted interlocking 8”x10” sheeted patterns with very little grout spacing to take away from the overall effect. 

With its versatile design spectrum and rich range of colors, Benton Mosaics lend an air of classic sensibility to any commercial or residential indoor wall and floor application. This is an inventoried program housed in ANN SACKS Portland facility, which can comfortably meet even the tightest commercial installation deadline.
