Mercury Mosaics

Mercury Mosaics tile is beautiful however, their client services are what really make the whole experience amazing. I have worked with them on two custom projects. My most recent one we realized that the trim pieces were shorter than I thought and we were short the quantity we needed to complete the project. The folks at MM rallied, pulled the bodies while I was on the phone, hand carried them to get them cusrom flazed and sent them out the next day! That are simply amazing people with unbelievable products.

Great experience start to finish. I had spent time looking at Mercury Mosaics Instagram and on their website and loved that I could get samples and see the colors in person to provide a selection of colors back to the designer. Back and forth till design was approved. The best part was everything was labeled for the layout and on mesh. Made the install by our tilers seamless and fast! Loved being able to work with a small business and get something unique and gorgeous. Thank you!

From start to finish, Mercury Mosaics was excellent service and product. The Vermont Pine is the perfect color I had been searching for. I hope to use them again soon!

I absolutely love the tile. Ordering was so easy and the staff answered all my questions. The tile arrived safe and was everything I expected and more. I would highly recommend Mercury Mosaics. My shower turned out lovely and I absolutely love the tile on the shower floor!

Very happy with the custom created tiles from Mercury Mosaic. They were great at helping me with design and colors. The sink backsplash was made several years after the backsplash above the stove and the colors were very complementary and cohesive.

I could not recommend Mercury Mosaics more. They were communicative, updated my order status, gave me a list of rockstar installers/artisans, and ultimately deliver customer service experience you don't see too often anymore. The tile is beautiful. Absolutely perfect. The "bluegrass" glaze is even more beautiful in person than it is online. I highly recommend this tile. AND, I highly recommend their referral of Leslie from Satori Tile.

She did an absolutely flawless job of installing our tile and is just an overall lovely person. 10 out of 10 would recommend both! Currently trying to decide the color we're gonna go with in our bathroom next!

The people at Mercury Mosaics were great. They helped with tile selection on a tough project and the hand painted tile turned out great! We were looking for tile that would blend into our old home's character and they delivered! I would definitely come back when we eventually redo our bathroom tile.

The tiles we ordered from Mercury Mosaics are perfect. We couldn't be happier with the way our backsplash turned out. It's a work of art in our kitchen that has received many compliments. The company is fast, professional, and fun to work with!

Great experience, great product! All of the staff were kind and easy to work with and the tiles turned out beautiful! Went with the color Mint Julep size 3x6. The boxes came packed well with no damage. The quality and vibrancy of the colors was exactly what I was hoping for! It's important to keep in mind however, that they make these tiles to order which adds on time prior to delivery, but as long as you schedule that into your construction timeline then it's worth the wait!

Every single bit of my experience with Mercury Mosaics was amazing! Right from the very first phone call to the quick and efficient delivery to the west coast of Canada to the last minute rush ordering of extra trim pieces. They helped me pick out a custom colour palette based on some inspiration pics. I love that the company is woman-owned and that everyone seems to really love and thrive in their jobs. I can't recommend them enough! :-D

I scoured the internet looking for the perfect tile for part of our bathroom and I'm so happy I stumbled upon Mercury Mosaics. I'm still waiting to receive the tile in the mail but I was able to communicate with Alex directly via email and the response was so quick (on a Monday no less!) and very very helpful. We had some time constraints and Alex was able to let me know they were working on our order right away and would get it shipped ASAP, which ended up being a week before their projected date.

Surely this depends on how busy they are and the amount ordered but the quick and friendly response was so much appreciated. I'm so excited to see the final results when our tile arrives but even without seeing the tile I'm 100% satisfied, money very well spent.

This company and their product is just incredible. There's a reason you are paying a little more than other companies.the quality speaks for itself. I had a wonderful experience emailing back and forth with my questions. The employees are quick to respond, friendly and put you at ease. I couldn't be more thrilled when I opened the carefully packed box (not 1 broken tile)!

The color was vibrant, stunning and unique. I only wish I had more areas to tile now. I love going into my kitchen and be greeted with this heavenly pop of greenish blueish shade in the backsplash. Definitely worth the investment, 100%

My name is Katie, I own Steller Hair Co. and it is incredibly important I share my experience working with this company. What initially drew me to Mercury Mosaics: 1. They create some of the most beautiful and unique custom tile-work in the world. 2. I own a salon in NE Minneapolis, which is located down the street from the Mercury Mosaic workshop.

Not only are they local (which I love), they are run by the incredible Mercedes. As a female business owner myself, I love supporting other inspiring women-run businesses! I have followed MM on social media for a bit now, and have admired them from afar. I recently expanded my salon, and knew I wanted every aspect of my new space to have a story. Being a small business owner, you often have to prioritize function over esthetic.

It was important for me to create a beautiful environment for my team, and our incredible clients, so I reached of to Mercury Mosaics via Instagram and asked if they had any broken tiles, or "remnants" that they would be willing to sell me. I was hoping to create a backsplash for my backbar area, and was planning to do it on my own (now that I understand the intricate process of tile installation, I realize what a ridiculous idea that was.), Not only did they respond, but Mercedes reached out and said she knew of my salon, and had a "crazy" idea.

She wanted to help us design, create and install a custom "Steller" mosaic. MM also connected us with local artist, Josie Lewis. Josie's artwork is what inspired my designer and myself when it came to color scheme for this incredible mosaic. Josie is now a Steller client, and we are forever a Josie fan! The gift that Mercury Mosaics gave Steller Hair surpasses any expectation I could ever have had.

This mosaic is a visual representation of community, support and the beauty of connection. We can't ever repay these incredible people (and I'm a competitive gift giver, so that is very difficult for me.) but what we can do is use this mosaic to share a story of kindness in an often times unkind world. This mosaic creates an atmosphere and experience for our clients that reflects our mission and values Mercury Mosaics is so much more than a tile company. Mercury Mosaics is a collaboration of real people who are passionate about their craft, clients and community. I will forever be proud to display their beautiful work, and to call them friends.

I had a really wonderful time at the Beginners mosaics class. We got our own personal tour of their facility. Our instructor was so fun and helpful with assisting us to realize our visions. There were a lot of tiles to choose from and 3 different design models to choose from. I went as a part of a Groupon and it was an extremely good deal. I would be happy to go back and pay the full price.

I found out they had moved to this new warehouse location two weeks ago, so I thought I might not be in the show room but Sarah assured me I was. She was wonderful! She showed me all the colors they have available in little samples and up on boards. She gave me a price list. She gave me a tour of the whole place. She helped me rearrange some samples so I could see what they would look like arranged differently.

She encouraged me to take as many samples as I needed which could be returned if I would like or could be kept if I would like. For free! All the tile is handmade by artists. It is not cheap, $35 per square foot is your most budget option, but you get what you pay for.

It was a fun experience to create something from broken tiles and scratch. It was wonderful to participate with other and the instructor was well educated and patient working with newbies like us.

My husband had purchased a Groupon for me and a friend 3 years ago to take the mosaics class and we forgot all about it but they still honored the Groupon and I am so happy they did! The instructors were friendly and the class was so much fun. They use the tiles that are made right there in the shop from previous projects (corporate and home) to show beginners how to make the mosaics.

This is not only fun but also responsible on their part so there is minimal waste when they make 10% more for every project they are hired to complete. Their work is beautiful and it was so much fun learning the process for creating the tiles as well as making a mosaic piece! I would highly recommend.

I have worked with Mercedes Austin, Laura Stearns, Randi, David, and the other talented artists at Mercury Mosaics for many years. I have done dozens of installations for them, and am always ALWAYS impressed by the creativity, attention to detail, and total professionalism of the entire team. Every client I have installed Mercury Mosaics tiles for has been thoroughly delighted with the hand made tiles, the customer service, and the wonderful experience of helping to design new tile artwork for their home or business. If you are considering hand made tile and/or mosaic work, you simply MUST check out Mercury Mosaics. You will be glad you did! Leslie Bentley SatoriTile

We met Mercedes and her team at the 2015 Art-A-Whirl and we are so happy we did. My wife and I focus on renovating homes in Northeast Minneapolis and can proudly say that Mercury Mosaics' hand crafted tiles will be a staple to our custom renovations!

Love, love, love Mercury Mosaics! I've used MM on 5+ projects and Mercedes and her team of experts always deliver on time with impeccable product quality, no matter what the project size. Their hand crafted products are one of a kind beauty's and create a fantastic statement piece to any project.

I used Mercury Mosaics for a small kitchen project and a super small powder room project. Possibly their smallest project ever.

When I first saw Mercury Mosaics custom tile, it was love at first sight. When we built our house, it was a no brainer for us to add a backsplash by Mercury into our kitchen. As much as I loved our kitchen before, the tiles not only make the kitchen, but became a focal point of the entire main floor; they are absolutely gorgeous!

I had taken a couple classes at Mercury Mosaic and always loved looking at the beautiful tiles on the walls. When we decided to remodel the kitchen, I called Mercury Mosaic to set up an appointment to meet with Laura.

Gorgeous space filled with stunning artwork that is durable as well as functional, truly gifted and skilled artists.

I love this place & hope to have the opportunity to share with everyone the magic our tile can bring to their space! :

Had a great time at the beginners class. Great mommy/daughter activity regardless of age.

Our client selected tile from samples displayed at Pental Tile in Portland, OR. We ordered about 25 sf of simple 3x6 tile for kitchen backsplash as part of a larger kitchen remodel. Over 90% of the tiles shipped had the texture of sandpaper, not exactly a great finish to use in a kitchen setting. When wiped with a paper towel and window cleaner, the rough surface of the tile tore the paper towel and left bits of paper on the surface. Tried to return the tiles, but was told by both Pental and Mercury Mosaic that the finish was within acceptable tolerances of a hand-crafted tile.

At approximately $100/sf, I expected better service and support from both Pental and Mercury Mosaic. We're not new to working with tile, as we've been remodeling homes for 15 years, and our tile setter has been in business for over 30 years. Very disappointing experience with both Pental Tile and Mercury Mosaic. Super rotten customer service. Wendy and Jason Siri Siri Construction, LLC Portland, OR

After trying to source a beautiful backsplash locally, (north of Boston) nothing could compare to what I saw with Mercury Mosaics. They did a custom color combo for us and it is amazing. After six months, I still smile every time I look at it.

SO much fun.great way to spend a few hours with a friend being creative! Love my masterpiece!

Got a groupon for a beginner mosaics class here and it was great. I missed a class because of travels and they were kind enough to allow me to use my groupon past the expiration which was super nice. They make all of their own tiles themselves so the class projects you make are truly one of a kind. I ended up taking my rescheduled class with a friend and it was a fun girls morning in!

I made a great mirror and can't wait to start making more stuff on my own. The class is small so you get one on one attention and they made it an easy and fun activity. I would highly recommend this especially if you already have an intrest in mosaics. Am I ready to tackle a kitchen yet? Probably not, but I sure am inspired!

WOW! I have never even been inside this store, but I am in love with it. And I am forever indebted to Mercedes for her help on my mosaic project. She is AMAZING. She is not just amazing, she has heart. She really knows what she is talking about- I don't think there is anything she does not know about mosaics. She is truly passionate about what she does, and does not mind, in fact, I think, enjoys, taking over an hour out of her busy day to help me with my art project.

And then hours AFTER her work day to brainstorm with me, help me with my nipping technique, and countless other tips on grouting, hanging, etc. By the dimensions of my project, she was able to estimate exactly how much it would weigh! REALLY? It was such a welcomed surprise to find someone who really wanted to help me. She is kind, genuine, and cool.

She really is a mover and a shaker (as her website says). Mercedes wants to have a special store, and I think her unique and genuine passion is refreshingly different, and what creates this special-ness. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! When I move into my dream house, I will fly her to California to help me design my mosaic kitchen and bathroom tile! Yes, that is right Mercedes!

Took my second "beginner" class at Mercury Mosaics and I'm very happy with the way both projects turned out. Until I remodel my bathroom using their handmade tiles, I'll enjoy my small scale creation! Next time I'll be opting for their advanced class. I thought they were organized in their presentation of the steps to create your choice of two different projects and gave ample time to complete the process during the class. I've taken alot of craft and art classes over the years and I thought the ladies did a fine job. Yes, the tiles to choose from simply are what's available, however that's the beauty of creating art.my opinion anyway. For the groupon price, it's well worth it.

I took the beginners tiling class with my mom after she purchased a groupon. I have never really taken a recreational art class before but I thought this one was everything an art class should be. Fun yet a little frustrating. Don't get me wrong the staff is great. They are super nice and helpful. The frustrating part is that the class is by no means cheap (60 bucks without a groupon) but the tiles they let you use are their imperfect and trash tiles.

You can find some great tiles in there but if the class is full and you didn't pick the table closest to the bins your selections can get dicey. They don't have all the colors and shapes that you see on the website in the bins. They are also not organized in any way so for someone like me who tends to have a touch of organizational OCD this can be frustrating.

I found tiles that I liked but not really enough to fill my board so I ended up with a lot of negative space. I like my project but I would have enjoyed a few more tiles to work with. I could just be picky. I would defintely take the class again as it was really fun and I felt I learned a bit about tiling and grouting but I might bring some of my own tiles next time. If you can afford some custom tile job this is the place to go. Everything is handmade and gorgeous.
