Backsplash ideas to go with Luce di Luna quartzite
Comments (7)Dear mizbe, Sorry not to have a useful suggestion for you other than to recommend classic white subway tiles. (They are trendy now; but I believe they will never truly go out of style since they are so pervasive a part of 20th-century American design history.) I can only gush: sounds like your kitchen is going to be gorgeous! Can we see pictures soon? I can't wait to see your luce di luna. And I bet many Gardenweb readers will want to know how it holds up to stains, etching, etc. compared to marble since it is frequently suggested as a substitute for marble....See MorePlease Help!

It's so hard to find just the right pendant shape, in just the right size, with just the right lumens, at just the right price!...See Morebacksplash ideas for by super white quartzite

Comments (19)It was already darker at the fabricator’s shop, after the years of being stored outside, when I went to template. So before I saw them at install. The lighting in the kitchen is all new, LED, 3000K daylight, so nice and white. Definitely different lighting than when I bought them at the stone yard, but it’s brighter and whiter lighting at my house, which I would think would make it whiter looking. I feel like the years outside must have changed them. It’s puzzling. I wonder if some of the stone experts have any ideas......See Moregreen.homeowner
