As to the full height backsplash, I really like a full height granite backsplash just behind the range, with quiet tile backsplash everywhere else. That way, you don't have to worry about cleaning splatters on the grout behind the range cause it's smooth granite slab, but you won't have the busy-ness of granite backsplash everywhere in the kitchen. I do not know the name of the granite in the pic, but I wouldn't worry about the name so much. We have seen many times on this forum that a granite could be called different names at different granite yards, and you could make yourself crazy trying to match a name. Also, a, e.g., Colonial Cream could look one way at one granite yard, and at another yard the same name Colonial Cream could be lighter or darker or more or less patterned. My advice is take the pic to several granite yards and ask if they have something similar.

Sprtphntc, Thanks so much. I think you nailed it! Putting this house back together and trying to figure out how to complete it has been a challenge. Now with the name of the Granite, I can better view/gain insight to others who have used similar stone in their kitchens. Follow-up question. The home has an uninstalled island with the same stone already cut for the counter. However, the back of the cabinet is unfinished. The home already has a TON of stone, including the pillars in the kitchen being wrapped. The island will have doors/drawers on one side, and will be solid on the opposite side. Cabinet is simple pine without stain. Floors will be dark wood. Any creative ideas of what can be done on the back of the island?

Only way to see what you prefer is visit the slab yard. Mention her color suggestions and Mascarello. What she and I have suggested are in the family of what you posted.

Hi there, I really like this granite - can anyone tell me the name of it? Thank you!
