Glass tiles for the bathroom, but not any old glass tiles...??!?!?

I've probably been watching too much Alan Carr, but I have this vision for the bathroom one day. In my mind's eye I can see glass tiles - but I'd like them to look sort of like the glass you find washed up on a beach: slightly cloudy, different colours (including a hazy bottle green and a shadowy purple?!), and maybe an unusual shape (e.g. vertical undulations). All of course without sacrificing practicality, as I don't want cleaning the bathroom to be too fiddly. And not £17,000 per square metre!

I'm probably asking for the moon on a stick, as I've found nothing like this online. If you can picture what I have in mind, and have actually seen it in existence somewhere, I'd be very grateful if you could point me in the right direction!

Try googling glass blocks.

Oh, I was just ogling that! Envious, and also pleased to 'meet' someone with such beautiful taste.

Wow, some gorgeous suggestions here (especially from @GarlicSound and @hohummm1), thank you. I'm afraid I am still stubbornly clinging to my ridiculous notion of something vaguely retro in what looks like the sort of glass you might find washed up on the beach in about 1927. Not asking for much, am I 🤣

The pebbly/mosaic look doesn't tickle my fancy because I'm after a more formal style (like Michelle O's headboard!!!!!!!). In my crazed vision, the tiles are vertical rectangles with a slightly (vertically) fluted/undulating surface, and to finish off the top edges there would be a sort of subtly embossed border. But all in really antiquey-looking cloudy glass in gorgeous greyish greens/blues/mauves.

I don't think this exists. Or if it does, as @GellerYeller mentions, it would cost a fortune. Or, as @GrannyAchingsShepherdsHut points out, cobbling something together myself (somehow!!! after miraculously acquiring artistic skill!!!) would take for ever...

Hmm.

Do any of these work? They come in different colours… https://pin.it/6I2l9wbtw

They're very pretty, but the colours are too vivid. I want that "bottle washed up on the shore in 1927 after being pounded by the sea for two centuries" look.

I know I'm not asking much 😜

Thank you. I really do love them.

Hope you find what you're looking for @Beachtastic!
