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 MoreWhite Quartzite/Luca de Luna counters-ideas for backsplash??
Comments (4)Out LDL/White Macaubus island was installed less than two weeks ago. It's so beautiful. Everyone that's seen it has commented on it and asked about it. We chose ours with some quartz crystal veining shooting in another direction that adds a bit of interest to it. Our leathered absolute black perimeter and bar will be installed within the next week. But we're going for more of a transitional feel rather than contemporary. I'm looking for "traditional with a twist" I guess. I chose it because I loved the linear pattern yet it felt flowy to me as well. I didn't want to deal with marble and didn't want the business of granite. I also didn't want my same antiqu brown granite from our previous home, though they were lovely. It was hard to swallow the price though! I may do marble hex tiles around the perimeter or a great small oval stone mosaic I saw at a local tile place. I haven't started my serious search yet since the perimeter isn't in. But I've been keeping my eyes opened....See MoreWhite Quartzite is in (photos)! need help w/ backsplash
Comments (40)jdknyc, this may be too late to help you, but I'll post it anyway in case you are still looking or someone else wants a darker BS to use with white quartzite. My designer recently recommended Nine Lives from the Crossville Color by Numbers collection. It is a medium-dark gray with bluish tones, and the sample we have really worked with the dark vein colors in the slabs we held it up to. I am not sure if we will use it since I pictured a lighter BS next to our walnut uppers. I think the Nine Lives would look great with your white cabinets and white quartzite. It costs under $4 sq ft (at least with my designer's discount). Here is a link that might be useful: 9 Lives...See MoreBacksplash to go with Taj Mahal Quartzite
Comments (12)Thank you for these ideas. I really like the White Haze posted above. I went on the website: https://akdo.com/?s=haze and it looks like that color/materials comes in many different sizes and patterns. I'll try to get a sample....See Moresfmomoxo
