A Raised Line Of Gloss Black Along The Wall
The bead is the smallest of the three Architectural Mouldings profiles — a convex roll just 2cm across that lifts a single curved line off a tiled wall — and it arrives in glossy black ceramic from Hyperion Tiles, your official Ca'Pietra stockist.
Run at 20 x 2 x 2cm, this piece does quietly what a flat border cannot. Its rounded face turns the light as it passes, so instead of a printed stripe you are given a genuine ridge, bright along the crown and shadowed beneath. In black, that highlight reads almost silver and the shadow reads as a firm graphic rule.
Ca'Pietra make these for internal walls, and the black bead earns its keep in bathrooms, showers and wet rooms where gloss stays lively in steam. No sealing is required. Ca'Pietra are clear that the mouldings are not colour-matched to any single tile in their range, so treat the pairing as a deliberate design decision — which is exactly what black does best, drawing an outline around a field of pattern.
The Hyperion Family Promise
- Specified To Suit - Tell us the tile you are edging and we will work out how many bead lengths a run of that size needs.
- Genuine Ca'Pietra - Supplied straight from Ca'Pietra, who make the mouldings; we are their official stockist, not their manufacturer.
- Bought With Your Tiles - Order the bead alongside the field tile so both arrive together and the tiler is never held up waiting on trim.
- Dedicated Delivery - We arrange safe, secure delivery for your project, with free UK delivery on orders over £1,000.
- Personalised Project Support - Our Ascot team can show you a black bead set against a lit wall before you commit to the profile.
⚠ How To Use
- Before You Start: Check the run against the 20cm length of each piece and allow for the cuts at corners and stops.
- Application: Fix to internal walls only, bedding the curved face so the crown sits proud of the surrounding tile.
- Coverage & Care: Glossy ceramic, no sealing needed — wipe clean and keep abrasives well away from the glaze.
