What kind of tile is Sable?

We stock Sable as porcelain, 12x24. It reads misc. Ansello Ivory Ceramic Tile and Pearl sit in the same style family if you want to compare. Fired denser than ordinary ceramic, porcelain has near-zero water absorption, which is why it also goes on floors and wet walls.

Sizes and finishes

Sizes

Sable is made in 3 sizes. Size is the decision people skip and then notice every day: it sets how much grout line ends up in the field, and a larger module on the same wall reads calmer than a small one.

Where it works

The applications this surface is actually rated for.

Rated for flooring, all of it at commercial duty. That is the maker's call, and we hold to it.

Rated for

Flooring — residential and commercial

Not rated for

Outdoors — not recommended

What to expect once it is installed

The ratings that decide whether the finished wall matches the sample.

Shade variation: V4 — substantial variation

Pieces vary substantially in color and pattern, by design. Two tiles side by side can look like different products. Order from one production run, buy your overage up front, and insist on a dry lay before anything is set — this is the rating that generates complaints when nobody was told.

Wear rating: PEI 3

On the industry abrasion scale of 1 to 5, this one sits at 3 — everything a kitchen asks of it: walls, counters and residential floors.

Certifications

What to put next to it

Built from the color we measured off Sable itself, not from its name.

Read off its own swatch, Sable measures #CAB89A: light, warm. We match that to Greige and build the pairings from there. Close enough to neutral that the cabinets get to make the decisions; this will follow them.

Cabinets

Pure White — walls one step warmer than the cabinets so the white reads crisp. Against this surface it is a step lighter, which lifts the surface without washing it out classic

Countertop

White Veined (Marble-Look) — Greige keeps the veined white from feeling icy — the counter reads like linen instead of a showroom slab, and fingerprints vanish into the warmth.. Against this surface it is a step lighter, which lifts the surface without washing it out current

Hardware

Warm Brass / Satin Gold — Brass pulls the hidden taupe out of greige, and as the lacquer softens over the years the pulls just look more collected, never tarnished.. Against this surface it is close in weight, so the two will blend rather than contrast current

Flooring

Natural / White Oak — Greige and natural oak share the same beige undertone, so the cabinets seem to grow out of the floor — a quiet trick that makes small kitchens feel seamless.. Against this surface it is close in weight, so the two will blend rather than contrast solid

Questions about Sable

Answered from this product’s own spec sheet and our measurement of it.

What size is Sable?

Sable comes in 3 sizes: 12x24 · 24x48 · 2x2. Pick the size before the color. It decides how much grout line ends up in the field, and on the same wall a larger module reads calmer than a small one.

Where can I use Sable?

Its maker rates it for flooring, and not for outdoors. We hold to that rating when we quote — installing outside it is how a warranty claim gets denied.

Will the tiles match the sample I saw?

Sable is rated V4 — substantial variation, by design. Two pieces side by side can look like different products. Order from one production run, buy the overage up front, and insist on a dry lay. This is the rating that generates complaints when nobody was told.

Can Sable go on a floor?

Yes. At PEI 3 it is rated for normal residential floors as well as walls and counters — the usual rating for a kitchen.

What color is Sable, really?

We measured its own swatch at #CAB89A — light and warm. It sits close to neutral, so it takes direction from the cabinets rather than fighting them. Names are marketing; that number is what the camera saw.

Does Sable need sealing?

No. Porcelain is vitrified almost to zero water absorption. The tile itself never needs sealing; cement grout still benefits from it.
