I've bought these tiles for my bathroom, they will be in the shower and half wall on 2 walls and a run of units on the other. I would have liked a dado tile or edging tile on the half walls but can't finf anything to match. I've bought white plastic flat edging but it looks awful when I put it against the tile, as did the chrome. Any suggestions as to what I can do.

They are lovely tiles and they don't need an edge or border.

Also I have a chrome strip on the top of very similar tiles and it looks nice. Why didn't you like it?

Don’t use a border. You’ll turn something lovely into a throwback from years gone by.

you just need to find an edging strip you like.

get a straight edge not rounded as that looks cheap IMO. What colours are you having in there? I am all silvers in my home so I usually get brushed stainless steel. You barely notice it once done but it finishes off the tiles nicely.

They are a flat edging strip I've got, I tried the chrome but it stood out too much, I though the white would just blend in. I have a niche in the shower which will need an edging. My cupboards will be dark green with oak worktop.

That seems strange. I have the chrome and it doesn't stand out at all. I can take a photo of you want?

Yes please, I'm sure I'm overthinking it.

This us what I was sort of thinking, or a pencil tile and running through the middle of the shower.

Pencil tile is definitely the way forward but there way not be one available for the range you have chosen.
