| This is my first post on this forum and hope to get some feedback from all you creative types... We need to choose a backsplash to compliment our beautiful madre perla quartzite countertops. I have been looking at polished white (pearl) onyx staggered tile to maybe glass tile. Any ideas or feedback is appreciated! |

| I believe Pipdog used white onyx tile, and her kitchen looks fabulous. What color are your cabinets? your counters are gorgeous, by the way. |

| Thank you for your input! The cabinet color is Dunn Edwards milk glass. I have seen the white polished white onyx and love it! Having a problem sourcing the product through my usual Los Angeles tile places. |

| Absolutely gorgeous choices so far. The colors are subtle and incredibly beautiful. I love the wall color, cabinet color, stone, floor - home run. How do you feel about mother-of-pearl tile? It is available in almost any imaginable format like the 2" x 2" mosaic below, and can have touches of pink to cream, to brown.

| One thing to look for is how the tile looks with the lights on and lights off. I tried the MOP shell tile in my current kitchen. It was gorgeous with the lights off and only daylight in the room. As soon as I turned on the ucl or the other lights, it went flat. Someone else mentioned this. I was surprised that it happened. I think Ann Sachs might have an Onyx tile available. |

| Did you find a bs tile? I'd love to see the result. Yours is one of my favorite neutral kitchens! |
