Thanks! Based on the style we have taken wood out of consideration. Agree with a Quartz or silestone.... Just wondering what specific color/name people have paired with Calcutta Gold.

How did you find an actual fireback to insert? I did a image search for firebacks and picked one that was shot straight on and square (easier to copy and paste squares or rectangles than ovals and other shapes). I played with the image in Paint to get it to the right size for your image. I learned this all by trial and error when I worked on my kitchen design. ...that's more gray, so I guess if I chose a gray one, then Carrara marble would probably look better that calacutta? I personally prefer the marble tile over the white subways and prefer calacatta over carrara for your kitchen. You've got a lot of white and black going on already; the gold veins bring in the warmth from your lovely wood floors (and possibly your walls, can't quite tell what color they are). I don't think you have to have everything match exactly. As long as the tones compliment each other - no cool grays with warm grays - I think you can blend a grayish fireback with near black counters and calacatta marble tile. Personally, I think that also makes for a more interesting mix.

It looks much different! I thought I didn't notice it was pink earlier. I guess you don't want to keep the pink, but if you did I would paint the vanity grey. Pink and gray was very popular in the late fifties. My mother loved the combination. If you want to change, how about spa blues and greens? Are you up for wallpaper? Linoleum is so cool. (Not vinyl, right?) Great light fixtures and hardware on the vanity.

We ended up going with Hampton Carrara amulfi backsplash. Mostly white cabinets except island is mineral gray (unfortunately has purple undertones). We found someone to cut out a few cabinets and insert glass. Just need to finish molding and waiting for shade
