Let's run through some of the cheat notes I noticed first:
Each tile measures exactly 1x1 centimeter, which means you'll need roughly ten thousand of them to cover a square meter—suddenly that "small" project feels like assembling a jigsaw puzzle for ants with a grudge against your free time.
Made of glass rather than ceramic, so when you inevitably drop one at 2 AM, it won't shatter into your existential crisis—it'll just skitter under the fridge to ⚡ with your missing socks and abandoned hopes.
The color isn't merely "black" but possesses what artisans call "nuanced depth," which is fancy talk for "this black is having an emotional journey and wants you to know it went to art school."
Uniform square shape enables intricate geometric patterns, unlike irregular tiles that force you into "abstract expressionism" when you were aiming for "straight line" and your patience expired.
Small enough to create detailed borders and narrative landscapes, so yes, you can finally mosaic that dramatic recreation of your cat judging your ⚡ choices—in stunning miniature monochrome.

You'll age visibly. Neighbors will worry. The ravens will respect you though.
While your glue dries and your vision blurs from staring at tiny black squares, feast your eyes on some videos you may like on this topic: mosaic timelapse compilations set to suspiciously dramatic orchestral music, that one person who covers their entire staircase in black tiles and somehow survives the divorce proceedings, and the classic "I started a mosaic and now it's been twelve years" documentary-style confessions that remind you we're all in this beautiful, slightly unhinged craft together.
