Nevada.Moments of light, full of atmosphere.
Like a delicate glow within the glass: SICIS® Firefly Nevada combines mineral inclusions with silvery reflections. This glass mosaic gives your room lively depth and the distinctive atmosphere of a private retreat.
01 · Material & effect
Light within the glass.Light within the glass.
Delicate reflections. Lively depth.Full of depth.
Nevada reveals its character through the interplay of transparent Smalto glass, mineral inclusions and a silvery leaf finish. Smooth, glossy surfaces and gently rounded edges capture the light in a finely structured mosaic design.
Both sides of the glass tesserae are finished. The paper mounting on the front keeps the backs free for full-surface bonding.

For professional installation
Lay the transparent glass mosaic with full adhesive coverage and minimal voids in an evenly light-coloured adhesive bed. In wet areas and pools, use a reactive adhesive and epoxy resin grout. The adhesive and joints must be completely dry before grouting.
03 · Your vision for the space
Your retreat.
At its most beautiful.
Bathroom & living spaces
As a shower wall, recess or accent at the washbasin, Nevada brings delicate light reflections into your bathroom. SICIS® Firefly glass mosaic gives walls, floors and wet areas an expressive, glossy surface.
Pool & wellness
Firefly is suitable as a glass mosaic for pools and wellness areas. Its silvery reflections become particularly lively in the water; full-surface bonding with a reactive adhesive and epoxy resin grout complete the installation.
04 · Harmony in every detail
The right grout
makes the difference.
Carefully coordinated grout completes the mosaic design. The SICIS® colour recommendation for Nevada: Sabbia 208.
Litokol Starlike® EVO Sabbia 208 complements the mosaic with colour-stable, water-resistant epoxy resin grout.
05 · Installation
Precision that
preserves beauty.
- Prepare the substrateEnsure the substrate is flat, load-bearing and clean. In wet areas, proper waterproofing is part of the build-up.
- Bond with epoxy resinFor a light-coloured reactive adhesive bed, we recommend Litokol PowerGel® Pro Max Ultra Bianco: a white two-component (2K) epoxy resin adhesive of class R2 T.
- Align the mosaic designThe paper side faces outwards. Bed the sheets evenly; once the adhesive has fully cured, moisten the paper, peel it off diagonally and remove the glue residue.
- Complete the finishFill the dry, clean joints with Starlike® EVO Sabbia 208 and clean the surface within the specified cleaning window.
Working and curing times: see the relevant technical data sheet.
