This butterfly antique is pretty and i think would look ok with my golden oak cabinets, but i'm not sure if I want the black are there other options that you think would look good with golden oak. Kitchen is not very big just a U shape with a lower bar ledge. We live out in the country and so nothing fancy or modern would go with the rest of the house. The rest of the house has hard woods but the kitchen floor needs to be replaced and the type of flooring is still under consideration too. thanks for your help

Keal: You can go a little lighter in the green shade and it would look gorgeous. I'm thinking about Pocono Green or Butterfly.

I have a galley kitchen. I want it to look tuscany. If I purchase maple cabinets, what color glaze should I use? What color granite should I use?

Helene: I suggest to use a mocha glaze on the maple cabinets. For the granite color, take a look at Santa Cecilia and New Venetian Gold. For darker choices, try Tropical Brown or Butterfly Antique.

mary: Input this in your browser: http://www.grout-aide.com/colors2.html The "pewter" color would look great.

I have found a granite called Verde Butterfly - Expo, I can't find the granite on your site but think it may be the same as the Butterfly Antigue. Black, Green and Gold with touches of white speckles. How would this be with Honey Oak Cabinets? It is very similar to Ubatuba but the pattern is a little larger which seems to have a better presentation. Thanks for the help.

Jane: Also check out Butterfly Green.

I like the gallery photos of Butterfly Antique, but the slab views look entirely different - not as dark. Why is this?

Virginia: This is a rather overexposed picture.

I decided to go several shades lighter in cabs--a golden maple with dark chocolate brown glaze. no orange or red undertones. it looks beautiful w butterfly. we miss you here! I always enjoyed your responses. :-)

oops! I meant should I use dark green for countertop or is there another color I should go towards? I'm trying to avoid browns. The suggestion to me was tropic brown. yuck.

lyn: Sorry Lyn. I'm trying to catch up with the responses. There is only one of me and 10,000 visitors a day.

I have samples of butterfly and peacock green. butterfly has white flakes n copper veins. peacock has copper veins n no white at all. should I use this w/dark chocolate brown cabinets (that has a golden undertone)? tumbled marble backsplash n travertine floor. soffit/walls are creamy beige/ivory. kitchen has very high ceilings.

Lyn: I would probably choose the one without white. It won't distract the eyes so much.
