Grey Backsplash & Wall Surfaces

Grey becomes much more interesting when its texture changes. Honed marble, fluted ceramic, patterned stone, and peel-and-stick tile provide very different levels of permanence, cost, and visual impact.

Natural grey marble brings tonal movement and material depth that flat painted surfaces cannot replicate. The honed 12 x 24 format works especially well for a sophisticated backsplash or other visible kitchen surface.
