Hand-Cut Marble Tesserae for Mosaic Ready-to-use marble tesserae made from natural stone for artistic and Roman mosaic projects. Each tessera is hand-cut from marble rods and has a natural chipped surface with slight variations in shape, size, and height. This gives the mosaic a lively, authentic look typical of traditional Roman mosaic techniques. These tesserae are suitable for decorative panels, ornaments, borders, tabletops, mosaic floors, wall compositions, educational projects, and artistic mosaic work.
Size Approximate tessera size: 10 × 10 mm / 11 × 10 mm Tessera height may vary from approximately 3 to 10 mm. Because the material is hand-cut, the size, shape, and height of the tesserae may vary slightly. This is a normal characteristic of hand-prepared marble for mosaic work and is not considered a defect.

Approximately 250 g of tesserae covers about 10 × 10 cm of mosaic surface. The actual coverage depends on the size of the tesserae, the density of the layout, the width of the joints, and the mosaic technique used. A tighter layout or larger tesserae may cover a slightly smaller area. A more open layout with wider joints may cover a slightly larger area.
Natural Stone Characteristics Marble is a 100% natural material. Each piece is unique in color, pattern, and structure. Natural marble may contain: natural veins, mineral inclusions, color variations, small chips, micro cracks, differences in surface texture. These are natural characteristics of stone and do not affect its suitability for mosaic work. Please do not expect perfectly identical pieces. Variation in shape, color, and texture is part of the beauty of natural marble.
Recommendation We recommend ordering 10–15% extra material, especially for projects that require consistent color matching. Natural marble may vary slightly from batch to batch, so it is best to purchase the required amount for the whole project at once.
