    What is China mosaic? What is benefit of China mosaic?

    The answer to your first question is,

    Flooring which has a mixture of stones and glass chips with an attractive finish and multicolour flooring called as a China mosaic flooring. As shown in the figure. China mosaic is also available in tiles most of the people are used for the terrace as a waterproofing material. But nowadays it is not used because of its short lifespan and becomes useless within three to four years because of losing the bond between binding materials and stones or glass chips.

    In the second question to ask about the advantages,

    1. It looks very decorate you and many times blow away as a person minds.
    2. It contains a glass chip which gives you a premium look at a very reasonable rate.
    3. It consists of stones which are cut to perfection and I installed within glass tiles or mixed with cement.

    Costs:

    China mosaic tiles are about 6 to 8 mm thick. Around 60 rupees per box which contain 8 ceramic tiles.

    It is much commonly as purpose water-proofing used for terrace surface because of stone and glass chips set inside it. These look very attractive and unique finish. But because of weathering in 3 to 5 yrs, the joints between stones and glass chips begin to expand.
