Sizes and finishes
How it is actually sold — measured off the spec sheet, not rounded.
Sizes
Piano Camel is made in a single size, 4.5X9. That makes layout simple — what you see in the sample is the module you get across the whole wall.

Planning the wall
What Piano Camel works out to on your wall, from its own published size.
| Size (inches) | Pieces per 10 sq ft | Grout line per sq ft |
|---|---|---|
| 4.5×9 | 36 | 4 ft |
Arithmetic on the published size; a straight grid layout. Herringbone and other patterns cut more pieces.
One size, 4.5×9: roughly 36 pieces per 10 square feet, with 4 linear feet of joint per square foot.
Counts are before cuts — outlets, window returns and the ends of a run all take pieces. The install itself, from wall prep to caulk, is on our backsplash installation page.

Piano Camel or Piano Abedul?
Piano Camel and Piano Abedul are easy to confuse on a sample board: they share the same material, collection, style, glaze type, shade-variation rating, certifications and size. What separates them:
- Measured off each swatch, Piano Camel reads #A69885 (mid-light, warm) and Piano Abedul reads #C8BAAC (light, warm), so Piano Camel sits darker than Piano Abedul on the wall.
What to expect once it is installed
The ratings that decide whether the finished wall matches the sample.
Shade variation: V2 — slight variation
Expect a little movement piece to piece — enough to look like a natural material, not enough to plan around.
Certifications
Certified to Greenguard Indoor Air Quality Certified.
What to put next to it
Built from the color we measured off Piano Camel itself, not from its name.
We measured this tile's own swatch at #A69885 — mid-light and warm. The closest color we hold pairing data for is Warm Speckled Stone (Granite), so that is what the recommendations below are built from. It sits close to neutral, which means it will take direction from the cabinets rather than fight them.
Cabinets
- Olive Drab Green — Olive cabinets and warm stone share the same earthen yellow base, so the kitchen reads as one grown thing rather than parts from a catalog.. Against this surface it is a step darker — enough separation to read as two materials current
- Dusty Blue — Warm stone keeps dusty-blue cabinets from tipping nursery — the sandy flecks pull the blue toward coastal-grownup, and the busy surface hides crumbs between wipe-downs.. Against this surface it is close in weight, so the two will blend rather than contrast current
- Warm White / Ivory — traditional comfort; undertones agree. Against this surface it is a step lighter, which lifts the surface without washing it out solid
- Espresso — the 2008 set — honest but aging; modernize with slab tops instead. Against this surface it is much darker than this surface, so the tile reads as the light element dated

Questions about Piano Camel
Answered from this product’s own spec sheet and our measurement of it.
What size is Piano Camel?
Piano Camel comes in one size, 4.5X9. One module across the whole wall keeps the layout simple — what you approve in the sample is what you get.
Where can I use Piano Camel?
Its maker rates it for flooring. We hold to that rating when we quote — installing outside it is how a warranty claim gets denied.
Will the tiles match the sample I saw?
Piano Camel is rated V2 — slight variation. Clearly the same tile throughout, with small differences in tone that most people stop noticing once it is grouted.
What color is Piano Camel, really?
We measured its own swatch at #A69885 — mid-light and warm. It sits close to neutral, so it takes direction from the cabinets rather than fighting them. Names are marketing; that number is what the camera saw.
Does Piano Camel need sealing?
No. Porcelain is vitrified almost to zero water absorption. The tile itself never needs sealing; cement grout still benefits from it.
