Sage Green Tiles

What makes a tile sage green

Sage is a muted green with grey in it, which is why it feels calm rather than bright. Our sage range includes soft grey-greens and pale mint, and leans away from the stronger olive and teal you will find in the wider green tiles collection. Many tiles come in several colours, and this page shows each tile's sage or mint variant.

Where sage tiles work

Sage suits bathrooms, ensuites, laundries and kitchen splashbacks, especially in homes with timber, linen and natural light. It is gentle enough for a whole shower and still reads as colour. Most sage tiles are wall tiles, and the natural marble should be sealed. Check slip ratings on each product before using one on a floor. A sage splashback with timber shelves, or a mint mosaic niche in a white shower, is a simple way to add colour.

Pairing sage green tiles

Grout: white or warm off-white grout keeps sage fresh and shows off kit kat and herringbone patterns. A soft grey grout blends into mosaics for a quieter look. See tile grout.

Tapware: brushed brass and gold is the classic partner for sage. Brushed nickel feels soft and calm. Sage also pairs well with timber vanities, terrazzo floors and blush pink tiles.
