1/2x12
The slim finishing detail that frames an installation. 1/2x12 pencil liners in natural marble, travertine, limestone, and porcelain — the slimmest trim profile — to frame backsplashes, border niches, separate tile fields, and add a crisp, professional finish.
Why a pencil liner
A pencil liner is a thin, rounded strip of stone or porcelain — typically half an inch wide — that does the elegant finishing work in a tiled space. It frames a backsplash with a clean edge, borders a shower niche, caps the top of a wainscot, or separates two fields of tile with a crisp line. Cut to match popular stones, a coordinating pencil liner ties an installation together for a polished, intentional look that raw tile edges can't achieve.

Ordering & care: Pencil liners are sold by the piece — calculate your linear footage and add a little extra for cuts. Match the material and finish to your field tile and order at the same time so lots match. Natural stone is porous and should be sealed and cleaned with pH-neutral products; porcelain never needs sealing. Order a sample to confirm the tone.
