A Tonal Banding Course, Read Only By Its Shadow
The dado is the broad profile in the Architectural Mouldings range — a banding course rather than an edging — and in white ceramic it divides a wall by relief instead of by colour from Hyperion Tiles, your official Ca'Pietra stockist.
A white dado is a subtle instrument. Because it shares its colour with the tiling above and below, all that it contributes is a change of plane and the shadow which comes with it. On a pale bathroom wall that is frequently precisely what is wanted: the discipline of a horizontal course with none of the hardness a contrasting band would bring.
Ca'Pietra list this piece at 20 x 5 x 5cm with a weight of 1.2kg, and it is that listed depth we have carried through here. It is ceramic, glossy, made for indoor walls and cleared for bathrooms, shower enclosures and wet areas, asking for no sealer at all. If the projection from the wall is critical to your detail, do call us and we will confirm the figure against Ca'Pietra's current specification before your order goes in.
