Marble mosaic backsplash? Photos?
Comments (11)Thank you for the photos! It really helps seeing what others have done. I'm going to take my husband in to look at the mosaic. I'm guessing it is along the size of rhome410's mosaic (I thought it looked quite a bit smaller than 1" square but that was the only info I could find on the store's site).

For shame, If you do go the redo route, I would consider a b/s that picks up the browns in countertop. I’m not loving how your present b/s goes with countertop...See MoreKitchen glass mosaic back-splash recommendations
Comments (9)I don't know what your client has in mind completely. It might be worth asking the client for some inspiration pictures for what she has in mind. I think some glass mosaics might be overpowering for that granite. But there are some glass mosaics that might work as long as they are very plain. Super white glass tile Maybe something like this with a tiny bit of pattern: Silver planks glass tile Or maybe this one which might work with the colour in the counter: glass mosaic - raw silk...See Moredesignsaavy
