Newbie- Please help me identify this backsplash!!

12 years ago

Hi,

I'm new to this site and already addicted :)! We are in the process of remodeling our kitchen and have picked Giallo Ornamental for the counter tops. We will have cherry cabinets in a warm, rich brown stain with a sable glaze in the perimeter of the kitchen, and our island will be "snowflake white" with special distressing process. I am looking for backsplash tile and found this photo on the web(see below). I LOVE everything about this tile and wonder if anyone can identify what type it is (as well as the small glass-type(?) tiles so I can try to find it, or something similar, in the store or online. Thanks in advance for your help!

Here is a link that might be useful: GialloGranite

It looks like 4x4 Travertine.
It's widely available so you should have no trouble finding it either online or locally.
I can't help with the accent tiles, but I'm others here will.

I think its just a travertine look porcelain. I've seen very similar patterns at Lowe's and Home Depot for a pretty good price.

I like large tile for backsplash and am doing the same for the same reason, I couldnt get a third slab they didn't have one. I got 24x24 and I'm paying to have a professional install as it's tricky. So far looks lovely! Sizing to space properly is critical I found out from my tiler and he was right. If you have found your perfect tile, you can make it work well. If it's just ok, then I would send it back and look at long narrow floor tiles, or 24x24 or bigger to get your look. That is just what I finished going through. Now I'm stumped on tile for my fireplace..
