  1. “But wait, I thought you were looking at Zellige tiles for your backsplash,” you might say accusingly, if you were a judgy fussbudget, which you most certainly are not.
    Yes, I am still considering Zellige tile, but a fellow Fedizen turned me on to the idea of possibly getting stone slab remnants for a more attainable price (than whole slabs, that is) so a solid stone backsplash is personally more preferable to lots of grout lines. I still love the look of both.

  6. This amount of backsplash/countertop is (ultimately) about how much we would need for our whole kitchen. I don’t think it would be so overwhelming as it is in my previous examples, because the amount of pattern you’d see in the vertical plane wouldn’t be nearly as much.

  11. More Arabescato Corchia. Even though this kitchen is slightly more traditional and detailed in design, with more decor items about, it still somehow works without being too busy or overwhelming. It could be AI, though. Things just magically work in AI-generated interior design. 😑

  16. Ok I think as an alternative to Calacatta Viola, this Arebescato Corchia is more what I’m going for. It has more of a grey/dark grey breccia pattern, and depending on *how* dark grey, could still read as black and white (a soft black, if you will). Plus it’s slightly less expensive.
    Viola is more dark purple/pinks which COULD make the cabinets look more orange in comparison. And you know I’m scared of orange tones.
    Compare: R-Viola, L-Corchia

  21. BTW, spouse made this vanity and the matching medicine cabinets, and I finished them. He also tiled the backsplash and did all the plumbing and electrical work. It really helps us save on labor costs, which ultimately means we can afford some nicer materials. I’m so hashtag #blessed that I married such a skilled and talented guy!

  26. Yes I know marble isn’t as hard as granite or quartzite. I know it’s prone to etching and staining. We have laminate counters now and are used to using trivets and cutting boards already. Calacatta Viola is one of the more stain-resistant marbles when sealed. Homes and shops in Italy have had marble counters for hundreds of years and they just “patina.” The heart wants what it wants (but the heart also has to stay within budget so it’s a moot point).

  31. For instance, I love this Calacatta Viola marble, although I have not seen it in person. Descriptions say it has “deep purple or maroon veining,” but to me it just looks black & white.

    What do you think? I like the idea of black and white marble counters, b/c in our bathroom we have Negro Marquina marble counters, so the kitchen counters would be the inverse (I don’t want dark/black counters in the kitchen b/c of how much they show crumbs and streaks).

  36. In other news, I’ve been advised to go ahead and choose the final countertop material I ultimately want, because removing a temporary counter from new cabinets could damage them. Does anyone have any experience with this? It really puts a kink in my plans (even though I’d love to have my dream countertop now) b/c we can’t afford to do the whole kitchen all at once, so trying to match stone slabs later would probably be next to impossible.
