I suspected they were rhubarb- I remember plants that looked like this in our yard when I was a kid, and though nobody ver did anything with it, am I told it was rhubarb. I just didn't want to get my hopes up that it was actually something good instead of some giant nuisance. Yippppeeee!!! My sis loves strawberry rhubarb pie. Guess I better go do some rhubarb research. Thanks!!

It's gorgeous! I hope someone can help you. It looks like it has a slight texture, maybe crackle tile? The texture makes me think it's not glass. I have crackle tile by Walker Zanger on my kitchen backsplash--but I remember the tile salesperson telling my that it was not suitable for a bathroom. Sorry I can't be of any help to you :( I regularly visit the home decorating and kitchen forums and there are a lot of knowledgeable posters on there who might be able to help you, in case you don't get your answer here. Good luck!

beekeeperswife, I'd recommend that you go to a high end tile store to "see" mounted tiles. You can bring a sample board back to your house to view it in your home with your cabinets/countertop. ( They sound like a gorgeous combination!) The backsplash could be any number of blends. While I think it is Veil, the squares look pretty tiny compared to mine. Oceanside has a smaller mosaic field called "Facets" = For some reason, I can't copy the page info. Go to the link below, then click on products/by collection/facets/blends and you can see "Veil" in half inch tile. I am fairly certain that it will be very pricey, quite a bit more than the Veil in the one inch tile. Other ideas: "Susan Jablon Mosaics" has "White Out!" in her "Ice is Nice" collection that it may be. http://www.susanjablonmosaics.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=1205 Or, look at Hakatai "Cloud White Irridescent" http://www.hakatai.com/Cloud-White-Iridescent-P628C24.aspx I'm not sure if the reason for my choice of backsplash will help you. We did it sort of backwards - I have purchased what I like that is high quality over long periods of time at a very low price - most of it works, however while I love the price, practicality and lay out of of my well built (albeit second hand) QuakerMaid cabinets we installed, I am now trying to convince my dh to let me paint them. And while I really love my butcher block countertops in most of my kitchen, I really want Danby Marble in my baking area. We are somewhat stalled at the moment, and hope to be able to continue in a few weeks. Life is rich. I wish that I could show you a picture of the backsplash installed. I can't even show you a picture of the fronts of the tiles, as they are paper faced. Sorry. I purchased the Oceanside Veil Glass Tile on Craigslist (leftover from a job). FYI, is usually about $35 a square foot for that one inch tile blend. I paid a lot less. (Some of their more complicated patterns run upwards of $65 a square foot - it wouldn't surprise me if the Facets run close to $50, as the tile is hand crafted - the smaller the tile, the more tile that needs to be handled per square foot = an increase in cost.) Hope this helps. Hestia Here is a link that might be useful: Oceanside

UPDATE: (It's not Ann Sacks, but that tile is similarly pretty!). I was able to track this tile downright before our renovation started! A tile dealer in New York had a customer return 5 square feet, and he shipped me the 2 square feet I needed just in time. I love love love it! I will post pictures of the full renovation (we did 2 bathrooms!) in another thread. Thanks for trying to help me track it down! Lisa B.
