PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method of cutting glass tiles capable of cutting the glass tiles in good efficiency. SOLUTION: The glass tile 1 has a plate-shaped tile base part 2 and a glass sheet-like glass part 3 fused onto the surface of the tile base part 2. This glass tile 1 is formed by superposing a sheet glass on the tile base part 2 and baking them at a temperature higher than the softening temperature but lower than the melting point of the sheet glass to fuse the glass part 3 onto the tile 2. A score 4 is given onto the surface of the glass part 2 of the glass tile 1 along a planed cutting part. On the rear surface of the tile base part 2, a groove 6 is formed along the planed cutting part by using a disk sander 7. This groove 6 is made to have a depth halfway in the width direction of the tile base part 2 so as not to reach the glass part 3. The glass tile 1 given the score 4 and the groove 6, is set to a hand cutter 10 being used for pushing and cracking tiles, to be pushed and cracked at the planed cutting part. The cracked section is polished and finished by using the disk sander 7. COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT
