Have you seen imitation terrazzo in real life? It's like a low resolution / low contrast version of the real thing. If it's for the wall then you can have thinner tiles and it's basically the same price

Yeah this basically. It’s fine if you’re using it with a subtle pattern for a bit of depth but you can really tell the difference with the big pattern stuff.
Terrazzo is also quite fragile.
I kinda have the worst of both worlds, I got some subtle real terrazzo for my upstairs bathroom and I’m not sure I could tell the difference between the subtle fake stuff downstairs except it cost a lot more and was quite stressful getting.
Whatever you do, get all the samples. -
I've got a few samples of terrazzo effect and it's looked fine tbh. That said, the samples of the larger fleck stuff isn't as useful because the flecks are distributed over a wider space so a small sample size doesn't give as good as sense of what it is really like

why doesn't it look right?
Real terrazzo seems insanely expensive.
