A Modern Classic in Carbon
These penny rounds bring a tailored rhythm to any room—their matte carbon finish feels both graphic and quietly luxe. I love the tight, uniform pattern that softens light while adding dimensional texture. Try them floor-to-wall in a petite bath for a continuous, gallery-like envelope or as a moody backsplash against crisp cabinetry. It’s a small-scale statement that elevates everyday living with understated glamour.
Bring refined texture to your space—add Hudson Carbon penny rounds to your cart and transform your next floor or backsplash.
