Tile Trim for a Circular Opening?

Need some ideas guys.

I have a circular window (575mm Dia) in my en-suite, which I am tiling using narrow slices of the main wall tile.

What can I use as a tile-edging, to mask where the veritical wall tiles and the slices of tiles I am using in the circular window reveal, meet?

Are there any tile trims that you can bend around into a circle to mask this joint.

Thanks in anticipation. :dunno:

Various options..................

Schluter do a trim which can be bent.

Plastic trim, cut and heated to form a curve.

45 degree edge cuts to tiles (making your own jolly tiles in other words)

cut ..V..sections out the back of your trim,(all the way round).then gently bend to suit.. onto a bed of addy and use pins/screws to hold in place till the addy sets.
