Chiseled Edges
You've found the perfect product — now it's time to make it yours. Use our store locator below to find your nearest Stoneworld stockist, then simply ask for it by name.
The vastness and stunning landscape of the African desert are the inspiration for our striking Sahara French Pattern range. Fluctuating, amorphous patterns of sand are repeated in sedimentary sandstone, traditionally mined and shaped as stone pavers and blocks.
Sahara brings the features of gorgeous sandstone to designers, in a creative but traditional French Pattern combination, with authentic chiseled edges.
The Sahara French Pattern series is available in a Matt SmoothGrip finish, anti-slip tile technology, with a smooth finish on both internal and external applications, suitable for domestic and light commercial settings. The distinctive feature of this cushion edge tile is its chiseled edges, which when laid, mimics cut stone.

Meet the SmoothGrip Finish
Inspired by nature. Engineered for life.
SmoothGrip tiles harness gecko-inspired nano-surface technology to deliver a finish that's smooth to touch, effortless to clean, and genuinely slip-resistant with up to P5 rating, without the roughness of traditional tiles.
Perfect for bathrooms, kitchens, and living rooms inside, AND patios and pool surrounds outside.
Keeping your tiles looking their best is straightforward with the right routine. Regular sweeping and washing prevents build-up, protects the surface finish, and makes deep cleaning much less of a chore. Follow this guide to get the most out of your tiles for years to come.
Daily Care
- Sweep or vacuum to remove loose dirt and sand
- Mop with warm water and a pH-neutral, sulphate-free cleaning agent
- Rinse thoroughly — residue causes streaks and dulls the finish
Occasional Deep Clean
- Use a high-alkaline detergent (pH >9) for greasy deposits
- For textured/profiled tiles, let the cleaner dwell before scrubbing
- Steam or pressure cleaning can be used occasionally
- Always finish with a clean water rinse
Prevention Tips
- Use entry mats at all doorways — including pet entry points
- Don't over-apply cleaning product; more isn't better
- Avoid household soaps — they leave slippery scum
- Use a no-rinse detergent if rinsing is difficult
Dos and Don'ts
Safe to use
- pH-neutral, sulphate-free cleaners for everyday use
- Proprietary abrasive agents on unglazedtiles only
- Soft brushes and appropriate cleaning pads
- Organic solvent detergents for greasy deposits (occasional)
Avoid these
- Acidic cleaners — attack grout and haze glazed tiles
- Abrasive pads on glazed surfaces — cause surface wear
- Overuse of high-alkaline detergents
- Scrubbing machines with coarse abrasive pads
*Tiles may vary in sizing, weight, colour, pattern, veining, texture, durability, density, surface and finish from batch to batch. Slip ratings serve as an indication and may vary for each batch of tiles. It is recommended that a new test be performed for each batch of tiles if a slip rating certificate is required.
