You won’t have a lot of control with your angle grinder. Here are some suggestions: https://mosaictileoutlet.com/blogs/news/how-to-cut-glass-mosaic-tile

A tile nipper or a wet saw would do the trick.

Good luck

Buy a tile cutter. You score the glass and use pliers to make a straight break once the glass is scored.

Hi there, the best tool for glass tiles is a wet tile saw. It makes the edges perfectly smooth. A wet tile saw uses a diamond-encrusted disc and lots of water around the cut mark to prevent dust and cool the cutting disc. We normally use our Dremel with a diamond blade and spritz water around where we'll be cutting.

A tile saw with a blade for glass will work best .

An angle grinder wouldn’t be a good choice. An angle grinder runs at a very high rpm and when coupled with the diamond blade it will create a lot of heat that can crack the tiles. This is why tile saws keep the the tile in a continuous water bath. Consider renting a tile saw.

Buy or rent a tile saw. Angle grinder hard to control on mosaic tile. You could end up shooting tiles all over. Even with regular tile you need to start a groove with an angle grinder then finish the cut.

A diamond blade is definitely the best way to cut glass tiles. We used one on a tile saw and it was perfect, no issues with jagged edges.

The best way to cut any tile, including mosaic, is using a wet tile saw. These are available for sale at your local Home Depot, or available for rent at your local store that has a Tool Rental Center.

A wet tile saw works by slowly grinding, not cutting, away the tile while spraying water on the surface. This process is a bit slow and can get messy with the water, but it leaves you with a very clean edge.

Use a Wet tile saw is best

nip it then flip the tile so the cut side is hidden

One of the easiest ways to clean glass tiles to a sparkling shine is with equal parts water and vinegar in a spray bottle. Spray the mixture on and leave it for approximately 10 minutes. To get rid of soap scum or stains caused by hard water, rub tiles with a soft cloth or brush, rinse with cold water, then wipe dry

after you use nippers then you can use a glass grinder or a grinding stone in water.

Tile saw with a 'new' glass blade. The trick to cleanly cut edges is to position the blade so that it cuts through half of the thickness on the first pass. Then, turn the tile over and complete the cut for the other side. The chips are most often created by the blade cutting completely through in one pass. The blade 'teeth' create chips when they try to re-enter the tile on the underside. Not allowing the blade to lose contact (by the blade remaining inside the thickness of the glass) the chipping issues are remedied. Good luck. Hope it helps.

If using Mosaic glass tiles, use a glass cutter as best you can. Once Grouted they will look fine. (Practice bt cutting a few and grouting to see what it looks like)?
