June: You're on the right track. Another suggestion would be Colonial Cream, and on the lower end New Venetian Gold.

Our kitchen remodel will have California Chocolate (medium-brown, not too dark). We have 20" off-white tile (travertine look) and are looking for a lighter granite that has some striations and movement but not too much. Walls are Carrington Beige, sort of a light khaki color. Older home with 8-ft ceilings so I want to avoid a closed-in feeling and think the granite will be key. Liked Golden Beach on the higher end and a nice lot of Santa Cecelia on the lower end. What do you think? (We have about 120 sq ft of counter space incl. a peninsula and are thinking of adding a small dining island w/ wine fridge too.) Any other granites you'd recommend trying? Thank you!

I was looking at the one you recommended New Venetian Gold, and I really like it; however, my dining set has two leather black chairs and a bench and two white microfiber chairs. what granite would you recommend out of the three? santa cecilia? or a gold?

All Granite and Marble - Moderator

Date: 2010-02-19 08:31:34

Cynthia: No, definitely go lighter. Santa Cecilia is an excellent choice, also New Venetian Gold. These choices have some garnet flecks that compliment the cherry nicely.

well, I decided to go with Typhoon Bordeaux am waiting for another group of slabs to come and hopefully it will have a little less golf/rust color, I feel the Bordeaux will give me a warmer look, meanwhile I need to pick out my tile. Any suggestions? I would like to go as dark as i can there will be a lot of traffic in that area. I am also planning to do a backlash probably tumbled marble thoughts? Thank you "Big Time"!!!

All Granite and Marble - Moderator

Date: 2009-11-30 16:18:39

Sandra: The Giallo Ornamental is calmer, and would compliment the nutmeg maple cabinets very well. The Bordeaux is more bold and has a rather unpredicted array of rich colorts, the Ornamental is more consistent and a safer choice.

Name: Sandra

Date: 2009-11-30 14:04:17

the slabs for the typhoon seem to have a lot more rust color then I thought. I still like it but am afraid it's too much what do you think about the giallo ornamental with the nutmeg maple and smoke glaze?

All Granite and Marble - Moderator

Date: 2009-11-21 09:55:41

Sandra: It's a different direction from the stones I have suggested so far. This stone has more life, which is a good quality. The Bordeaux will tie-in the maple cabinets beautifully.

Name: Sandra

Date: 2009-11-20 17:28:58

Sorry, I am so nervous about making this decision...why do you say "different direction"? Do you think it will be too "flashy"?

Sandra: To look warm and traditional, a light granite would be better. But for darker, look at stones from the Butterfly family if you like green tones. For dark browns that would look nice, there is tropical brown and and baltic brown.

All Granite and Marble - Moderator

Date: 2009-06-08 09:57:23

All Granite and Marble - Moderator

Date: 2009-05-20 13:23:03

Jean: I don't think the backsplash would help a lot but if it's worth anything, the stainless steel might distract the viewer from the countertop. Short of going very dark with the stone (think Platinum Bahia) I really don't see a clear solution here. I would suggest getting samples of all materials and testing it out.

Name: Jean

Date: 2009-05-20 11:18:53

If we don't do the stainless steel backsplash, does that change the color of the granite? I really like the beige/gold family but I'm guess b/c we have cherry cabinets it is not too much of a contrast. The builder picked Tan Brown, Juparana Florencia and Arandis Chocolate but I am not a fan of the red/pink tones.

All Granite and Marble - Moderator

Syl: Judging by the restaurant appliances, I'm guessing you cook quite a lot. I would lean towards darker stones. They tend to be more dense than lighter ones and also won't show dirt as much. Take a look at a stone called Boreal if you like consistent patterns, and if you like more of a flowing pattern, see Pergaminho.

All Granite and Marble - Moderator

Date: 2008-12-30 08:30:31

Judy: That one is debatable. From what I noticed, a lot of our customers are initially drawn to colors that are very close to the color of the cabinet. Once they see them next to each other though, they loose the interest and go for more contrast. I suggest you get a sample of the stone and put it against the cabinets.
