Waterjet Medallions For Luxurious Projects

Waterjet medallions and mosaics are both beautiful design choices, but they are made differently and have their own characteristics.

Production Method:
Waterjet medallions utilize high-pressure waterjet technology to precisely cut larger stones or other materials into intricate shapes. These stones are seamlessly pieced together to form detailed patterns.
Mosaics, on the other hand, are made by hand by piecing together many small tiles or pieces (such as glass, ceramic, or stone) into a pattern.

Look and Feel:
Waterjet medallions typically have a smoother, more continuous pattern because they are cut and assembled with great precision.
Mosaics have a more textured and fragmented look because they are made up of small tiles placed side by side.

Design Options:
Waterjet appliqués allow for very detailed, intricate designs that are not possible with traditional mosaic techniques. They are perfect for modern, luxurious spaces.
Mosaics are great for simple, classic designs or areas that need more texture.

In general, waterjet awards can be made from a variety of quality materials. This helps different customers to complete their choice of material for their projects.

Here are some of the materials we commonly use:

Marble: Perfect for a classic luxury look. It is ideal for interior spaces such as entrances and living rooms.

Granite: Strong and durable, perfect for high-traffic areas and outdoor spaces.

Quartz: Modern, low-maintenance and available in a wide range of colors and patterns.

Porcelain: Lightweight, versatile, water and stain resistant, perfect for bathrooms or kitchens.

Metallic Decor: We can even add metallic materials like brass or stainless steel for a unique design and extra shine.

Of course you can, we will provide some patterns for customers to choose from, but it would be a better situation if you have your own ideas!

We know that every project is unique, so we give you complete control over the design. Here’s how you can customize:

Size: Choose the exact size that fits your space, whether it’s a small decorative medallion or a large statement piece.

Materials: Pick from marble, granite, quartz, ceramic, or even mix materials to create a unique look.

Colors: Choose colors that match your interior or exterior design. You can go bold or keep it understated – it’s all up to you.

Patterns: Share your design ideas or work with our team to create completely unique patterns, including geometric, floral or abstract designs.

Personal Style: Add special details such as initials, logos or specific symbols to make it unique.

You can choose from a wide range of sizes for your waterjet medallion, depending on your space and design needs.

Standard Sizes: Common sizes include 24 inches (60 cm), 36 inches (90 cm), 48 inches (120 cm), and 60 inches (150 cm). These work well for entryways, living rooms, or feature areas.

Custom Sizes: If you need something larger or smaller, we can create a medallion to fit your exact space. Whether it’s for a grand lobby or a cozy hallway, we’ll make sure the size is perfect.

Using waterjet medallion in the bathroom or shower is a COOL thing to do, and we finish agreeing with our customers to use it in the bathroom.

Here’s why it works so well:

Waterproof Materials: We use materials like marble, ceramic, and quartz that are water and moisture resistant, making them perfect for wet areas.

Durable and Long-lasting: These medallions are designed to handle daily exposure to water and humidity without losing their beauty or quality.

Stylish and Unique: Whether on the floor, on a feature wall, or in the shower area, the badges add a touch of luxury to your bathroom or shower.

The process of installing waterjet medallions is very simple if done by a professional. The specific operations are as follows:

Prepare the surface:
The area where the medallion will be placed must be clean, flat and smooth to ensure a perfect fit.

Apply adhesive:
Apply a strong adhesive evenly to the floor or wall to securely hold the medallion in place.

Positioning the Badge:
Carefully place the medallion in place. The installer makes sure it is level and properly aligned with the surrounding tile or floor.

Grouting:
Apply grout around the medallion to fill any gaps and create a seamless look. Clean the edges for a polished finish.

No, with proper care, the color of waterjet medals will not fade over time.

The reasons for this are as follows:

Natural Stone: If your decorative plaques are made of marble, granite or quartz, their colors are natural and will not fade with normal indoor use.

Outdoor Use: For outdoor medallions, we recommend sealing the surface to protect it from harsh sunlight and weather. This will keep the colors vibrant for many years.

Easy Maintenance: Simply wash your medallion regularly with mild soap and water to keep it looking great. Avoid harsh chemicals that may damage the surface.

Yes, whether or not a waterjet medallion needs sealing depends on the materials used.

Natural Stones (like marble or granite):
These materials are porous, so sealing is recommended. The sealant creates a protective layer that helps prevent stains, water absorption, and damage. It’s especially important for areas with high moisture, like bathrooms or outdoor spaces.

Non-Porous Materials (like quartz or porcelain):
These don’t need sealing because they naturally resist stains and moisture. They’re very low-maintenance and easy to care for.

If you’re not sure whether your medallion needs sealing, don’t worry—we’ll let you know based on the materials you choose. And if sealing is required, it’s an easy process to keep your medallion looking perfect for years!
