You can choose a nice regular shaped tile or alternatively tiles broken into irregular shapes. The irregular shaped mosaic style can bring a unique almost art like quality to your kitchen walls.

Keeping your glass mosaic tile backsplash clean may sometimes be difficult

There isn't really any major disadvantage of using mosaic tiles for your backsplash, however the one small issue we can think of is that they may be slightly harder to clean than if the backsplash contained larger tiles. Because the mosaic backsplash has many more spaces between each tile, dirt and grime may gather between them if its not cleaned properly.

These are factors you may wish to consider regarding this particular backsplash style. Although a mosaic tile backsplash is sometimes more difficult to clean, it is also cheaper and can have a very individual and unique feel in comparison to other styles.
