Quartz to pair with Taj Mahal quartzite island?
Comments (28)We are using Taj Mahal quartzite for the periphery of kitchen countertop. It’s a large kitchen and will use two slabs for the periphery countertops and the back splash. Our Taj Mahal Is with greenish tint. I am asking for suggestion of another exotic quartzite or if not maybe granite for the central island that will be about 8 feet by 5.5 feet . Any suggestions?...See MoreTaj Mahal Quartzite with brick backsplash
Comments (36)I know people here keep saying that Taj Mahal needs to be the "only star" and you have to use a plain backsplash ... but I think most of those people do not have TM installed in their house! I'm on my second kitchen with TM and from most angles a few feet away, it just appears as a beige counter! Yes, you need to be careful what you pair it with, but plain white tile isn't the only tile that works with it....See MoreNext up: Backsplash with Taj Mahal
Comments (17)I finally chose my countertop slabs last week, and they are Taj Mahal, but it’s not like most of the TM I’ve seen. It has veins of white quartz and lots of criss-crossing lines. It was so stunning in person that I was able to easily let go of my Cristallo Quartzite on hold at another slab yard. I’ve carefully read through all of the threads concerning what backsplash to use with TM, and today I found this tile measuring 3” x 12” by DalTile, at Home Depot. It’s so inexpensive, and it matches my SW Alabaster paint perfectly! I was leaning toward a more hand-made look for my tile, but this will be the one if I don’t find something better, and I’ll install it in a herringbone pattern. The TM sample doesn’t look much like my slabs, but it did match the grayish tones in them. I’m thankful for all of the input, because I probably would have chosen something with more of a pattern, and the TM needs to be the star!...See MorePlease help with backsplash for Taj Mahal countertops
Comments (2)I would look for a tile backsplash. With your slab cabinets, a little but of texture and pattern might be nice. I would consider TM subway tile in a slightly larger format than usual. Or perhaps a simple cream pulled from the TM in an interesting shape, say an elongated hex or a cross pattern. Fireclay and Heath have lots of colors and many shapes....See MoreJoanna Cucchi
