Can anyone identify this backsplash?

9 years ago

last modified: 9 years ago

I really like the look of this. There was no description with the pic, so I tried saving and enlarging to see if I could get a better look for a description search but that didn't help. Would love to be able to look this up/know what it is. TIA

Hmmm... hard to tell the detail... even when enlarging the image.

To me it looks like it might be a pinwheel mosaic.

Perhaps something like this? Marfil and Emperador Pinwheel Mosaic

HTH, tmy

My backsplash is glass in a gloss finish. It is very easy to keep clean. Truthfully, I never thought of the glass being a problem, but worried about the grout. That has not been a problem either, especially considering I tiled a few years ago and never got around to sealing it.

I have the same backsplash saved. This is from another picture of the same project: The tile is Vetro by Casa Dolce Casa in Matte Bianco. 8x10 Sfalsato Sheet (Stagger Set). We sourced it in Seattle at Statements Tile (www.statementstile.com)

Name of this backsplash tile and granite.

Idk the tile, but the granite is in the Bianco Antico family, which means look for the granite names Bianco Antico, Alaska White, White Delicatus, White Springs or Lennon. Some stoneyards use these names interchangeably, so what one stoneyard calls e.g., White Springs, another stoneyard down the block will call a similar slab Alaska White or any of the other names I mentioned. BTW, the granites in this family are pretty easy care. Seal once a year, and they are pretty tough.

Glad to help. Pinwheel tiles are available in all kinds of colors/materials. I've seen similar that had garnet insets, so there's a lot to search through in that format.

If you wanted something less linear, something like this could work: Round Marble Mosaic

There was a kitchen reveal a couple years ago that featured that style... a white kitchen with cherry trim... But I can't locate it now... hard for me to find older posts since Houzz. :o(

Yep! I was eventually able to find where I posted the link previously.

More of a flower pattern than I recalled... Memory is fading fast.

Here's the thread I was thinking of:
