NOVALES™
GLAZED PORCELAIN
Description
Novales™ celebrates subtly with a texture reminiscent of a smoothly weathered stone look, or even, as the color names suggest, the well-loved pages of a favorite book. It’s a reminder of the beauty that exists in imperfection. And at the same time syncs with the demand for neutrals for both floors and walls.
