Thanks! Yes, the grout is grey -- I think it's Tec "Dove Grey." I did another bathroom with crackled white subway tile and used Tec "Silverado" there, which is a bit lighter than this. The DalTile is the K101 color which the tile store told me would match my white Kohler fixtures -- I have to admit, though, that the tile is darker than the fixtures so I have wondered whether one of the other shades (arctic white?) would have been a better match. The lesson learned is to compare a tile sample to your fixtures.

What luck that I checked the thread... I wish this forum sent email notifications on replies! Thank you both for the compliments; I am loving the bathroom now that we've been living with it for a little while. The vanity is a Pegasus Laguna, and we ordered it from Home Depot (it is available elsewhere as well). It is not that dark in real life; it's a medium cherry, very pretty. We did not use the mirror that came with it since we wanted a medicine cabinet. As for the rest, in case anyone is interested: the faucets, towel bars (not pictured), and wall-mounted soap/toothbrush holders (love those) are Moen. Curved shower rod: BB&B. Subway tile: in stock at HD (Victorian cap was special ordered from local tile company that happened to carry the same brand). Floor tile: Am. Olean (in stock at Lowe's). Sconces: the only ones at the lighting store that would fit in the space between mirror and wall and allow mirror to open. Tub: Americast (because it looked better with the tile than fiberglass, and our renovator begged me not to make him put in cast iron -- husband was not too excited about iron either). Toilet: Am. Standard, and let me just say that for a not-cheap toilet it came with a mighty cheesy plastic seat and really cheesy looking handle, so I replaced both of those with better looking ones (pictured). And let me also just say that I can't believe I have turned into the kind of person who cares what my toilet handle looks like. This was a to-the-studs total renovation due to floor rot and damaged wall tile and all that good stuff. A great improvement in function as well as looks. And a heads up for anyone else with a house of this age: our original wall tile tested positive for lead on professional evaluation; DIY test was negative.

If trim in MBr doesn't work, try White Dove. Without seeing the tile in person I can't advise as to whether it will work. I like to prime and paint a piece of trim (about 12" or so) so I can get a good idea of the color and carry it around with me. White Dove is a no, go with a white that doesn't have obvious tones jumping out at you (yellow, pink) when you compare the tile and paint side by side. Again, working up a trim sample is always better than choosing off the paint chip. Try Cotton Balls (OC 122), Cloud White (OC-130), or Decorators White

Thank you everyone for your comments! We did a couple sample layouts tonight based on your advice, and we’re going to do the charcoal in the shower floor. If I can’t find a good quartz/etc remnant for the curb, we’ll do the large hex cut in half - with the darker gray grout we’re considering for the floor, I think it will look better than the white grout example I posted. I just can’t believe they are finally starting to do real work in the master bath - so much is changing in the house as a whole, but this is our biggest single room project with all new materials and design elements. Exciting and terrifying all at once!
