Am I loopy to be considering these tiles in a shower room?

[Yorky]

I think these look lovely, I want to use them in our new shower room as a border to break up these
but am a bit nervous that they say 'are not suitable for direct contact with water' although fine for damp rooms like kitchens and bathrooms

Am I pushing my luck in considering putting them at picture rail height (so above level of shower head) - will they be far enough from direct contact with water that way?

hhmmmm mixed messages there....
Try emailing topps tiles HQ to get written advice on your particular case?
Or asking for the manufacturer's data sheet?

They're lovely. I wanted them but DH vetoed. Can you put them as a feature wall in the bathroom (som not in the shower area, but elsewhere?).

Will the slate tiles be running all the way round the room i.e. behind the actual shower? I would say that the tiles would be fine in a general bathroom but shouldn't continue into your actual shower cubicle.

I want them to go all the way around because otherwise they'll make a step in the line of the tiles where the border isn't (my grammar has totally deserted me! sorry), which sad as I am, will annoy me every time I look at it.
Will have to find a real life tile man, the internet isn't quite the answer to everything just yet

I think the problem is they would not be sealed in with grout which would mean water getting behind all the other tiles. I like them but they seem very impractical!

Exactly hippo, its the grout/lack of which is the issue. I was kind of hoping I could work round it by going above where water is likely to be - but its pushing my luck isn't it :(

And on a slight tangent - will a white suite look OK against 'creamy' tiles, or will it make the tiles look grubby?

looks like they are ok in other parts of the bathroom but not actually where they will be splashed with water. So it might be ok at picture rail height but not sure how that would look as a border, seems quite high to me.
