Marena Black has a deep, reflective glaze that bounces light off the surface rather than absorbing it, so a black splashback reads as glossy and deliberate instead of heavy. Used behind a hob or in a small cloakroom it looks considerably more expensive than it costs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in Spain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize: 75x300mm (7.5x30cm) rectangular ceramic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish: Gloss glazed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColour: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWall use only — not suitable for floors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePressed edge (non-rectified) — allow a 2mm joint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApproximately 44 tiles per m²\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold per square metre — free sample available\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it works\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eHob splashbacks, cloakrooms, bar areas and shower feature walls. Black is at its best in small doses or in rooms you want to feel enclosed and dramatic rather than airy — a windowless cloakroom is a better home for it than a north-facing bathroom.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill black make a small room feel smaller?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUsed floor to ceiling in a bright room, yes. Used on one wall or as a splashback, the opposite — the contrast makes the surrounding space read as larger. Gloss helps considerably.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the black consistent across tiles?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. This is a Spanish-made tile and dark glazes are where factory quality shows most — a poor black metro varies visibly between boxes, which is impossible to hide once it is on the wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat grout colour?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBlack or dark grey for a near-seamless wall; white grout for a graphic, high-contrast grid. There is no middle ground with black metro, so pick a side.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it show marks?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGloss black shows water spots and dust more than lighter colours. It wipes clean easily, but factor that in if it is going somewhere that gets heavy splashing and infrequent cleaning.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComplete the look:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/products\/marena-white-gloss-ceramic-75x300mm-metro-wall-tile\"\u003eMarena White\u003c\/a\u003e · \u003ca href=\"\/products\/marena-grey-gloss-ceramic-75x300mm-metro-wall-tile\"\u003eMarena Grey\u003c\/a\u003e · \u003ca href=\"\/products\/marena-green-gloss-ceramic-75x300mm-metro-wall-tile\"\u003eMarena Green\u003c\/a\u003e · \u003ca href=\"\/products\/marena-blue-gloss-ceramic-75x300mm-metro-wall-tile\"\u003eMarena Blue\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eExplore more \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/metro-tiles-7-5x30cm\"\u003e7.5x30cm metro tiles\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/metro-tiles\"\u003emetro tiles\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/kitchen-splashback-tiles\"\u003ekitchen splashback tiles\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tiles Paradise","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57485965230453,"sku":"TP-MAR-BLK-7530","price":24.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0720\/1216\/9506\/files\/AMB_ASLY_BLACK_1.jpg?v=1787782282","url":"https:\/\/tilesparadiseuk.com\/products\/marena-black-gloss-ceramic-75x300mm-metro-wall-tile","provider":"TILES Paradise","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
