I'm not big on posting full photos of my rooms, but here is a glimpse of the Jeffrey Court mosaic (Chapter 16) I ended up using. What you can't see is that the white marble is honed and the brown marble is polished. The way my kitchen is oriented, the polished tiles don't really show up much, except in certain areas when the lights are on at night, and then you see a bit of shine.
The brown marble ties into my brown stained wood floors and ceiling beams, and to the brown veins in the Taj Mahal.
