Dave: There are many shades of oak. I'd go with the stone that contrasts the cabinets more.

I have white tile floors, off-white paint on walls and oak cabinets. Thinking about Baltic Brown granite or Santa Cecila any thoughts?

Scotty p: I think just the difference in cabinets is enough to set the island apart from the rest of the kitchen. There's no need to give it a separate color. What I would suggest is something along the lines of Golden Rock Light.

cami: I think black would create too much contrast. Also it is pretty hard to keep clean as it shows smudges, dust, crumbs, etc.. Amazon star would tie into the wood quite nicely while providing plenty of contrast.

Jandy: Well the darker you go with the granite, the more "punch" you'll get. Peacock is fine although it will limit you to greens as far as the decor goes.

I have white cabinets and is wondering how baltic brown or amazon star would look with them

Name: cami

I have Oak Cabinets (almost the honey color) and white marble floors. I have been thinking about Amazon Star, Baltic Brown or something darker (black). But I am afraid that the black might stand out too much. Any suggestions?? What black would look better with the oak cabinets.

Name: Jandy

Date: 2008-10-10 12:52:00

One more question please since I really have to decide soon. I said I didn't want "black" but I now think dark granite looks really good with the cabs. Verde Peacock or other suggestions? Thanks so much.

Jandy: I would stay with the medium toned colors. Amazon star is a good one. Also try Baltic Brown if you want to pay less ;)

Maple (yellow-ish fawn slab Aristokraft) cabs, red oak floors (can be stained), SS appliances. Don't want black or something that reads black. How's Amazon Star? Any other affordable suggestions? Can I go light and still look good?

We have a good sized kitchen, custom stained maple cabinets in reddish/brown tone,light tile floors, stainless steel applicances (cooktop in island in center of kitchen), trying to decide on counter colors and leaning toward Baltic Brown, Giallo Vincenza, or Tropic Brown. What do you think? Any others we should consider.

All Granite and Marble - Moderator

Date: 2008-04-21 14:10:32

sugarbear: If the cabinets are medium in tone, I would first try to decide wether going lighter or darker than the cabinets will work better. Then try to find a stone that matches the general color scheme of the room.

I have cherry cabinets/autumn blush, white appliances and light laminate flooring, the walls are copper hide in color. What color of countertop would work well with my combination?

Jen: Uba tuba would look quite nice with the cabinets. Now if the floor has reddish tones in it, that might clash with the granite a bit. If it's just natural cherry, you will be ok.

I have cherry hardwood floor and Uba Tuba counters in my soon to be new Kitchen, but can\'t decide on the cabinet color. They are all Birch but with light, medium and darker tones. Can\'t decide which color will look good with the counter and the floor.

I have cedar beams, medium maple floors, darker cabinets cherry/brown. Stainless appliances. Rust/red walls contemporary, black backsplash. When my cabinet color is next to it it really looked great.I'm wondering if you think the counter is going to be too loud. something more subtle? Nepson Gold?

Beth: Try Giallo Vincenza. Tumbled marble is a good match.

Do you have any names of granite that you would recommend over Tropic Brown? Also, I'm getting filidelphia tumbled marble installed as the back splash with the tropic brown. What do you think about that as a match with the Tropic Brown?

All Granite and Marble - Moderator

Date: 2007-11-07 08:56:02

Beth: Tropic Brown is a fairly universal color. It will go with your cabinetry, but maybe you can expand your search a bit?

Hello! Please help... I have oak cabinets (with an orange/amber tint) and oak floors. I am trying to find a neutral granite (I like to change my paint colors often)that will work well with my cabinets/floor. I also like things light and bright. Any suggestions? THANKS!

I have a medium size kitchen with cinamon cherry cabinets - would Amazon Star work to provide contrast? If so thoughts on tile color for floor & back splash.

I have light oak cabinets, and travertine floors in a big kitchen. I like the looks. Any thoughts?

All Granite and Marble - Moderator

Date: 2007-07-11 09:57:37

Chris: You don't want to make colors to close to each other because it will make all the elements: countertops, floors, and walls blend in too much. Uba Tuba might be a good way of breakin the color scheme but may look a little too dark unless your kitchen is very large and bright. you may also lookk for something ligher and contrasty to the floor and backsplash in warmer tones.

All Granite and Marble - Moderator

Date: 2007-07-10 19:13:06

Pat: Giallo Ornamental wouldn't be too bad. It depends how light you want to go. New Venitan is a little darker and it is definately warmer so you may try that combination.

I have tofee colored birch cabinets, red oak wood floors and terra cotta colored backsplash. I like this stone but think a darker colr with brown flecks would be better. Uba Tuba? Suggestions?

Name: Pat

Date: 2007-06-24 21:27:52

We have maple/cognac cabs,blended terra cotta tile floor & blk apps. Since Amazon Star or Tropic Brown don\'t seem viable, would the color combo & tone of Giallo Ornamental work best vs. Verde Laura or New Venetian Gold work best.

You are correct Bev. You have enough light elements to afford a darker stone. It will "pop".

Plenty of contrast there!

how would this look with honey oak cabinets? Not enough contrast?

Perhaps something lighter to brighten up the room? Not sure about your scheme.

Tony: This stone will create a really intense contrast. Might be too strong.

All Granite and Marble - Moderator

Date: 2007-01-23 17:35:36

Satish: The contrast will work very nice. If you're looking for that wow factor then this stone will be great. Look into the Giallo family if you want to incorporate some yellows.
