We installed Crema Bordeaux 18 months ago and have been struggling with a backspash color and type ever since. The granite has lots of light green and even lt. blue flecks in it and I like the look of tumbled glass but what colors? Cabinets are an orange oak color but will be replaced next year.

I would add that amidst the L-shaped kitchen counter and there is going to be a slim island (22" x 48")as a half-way service surface (running parallel as in a sandwich)) between the stove (on South wall) and the fridge on the North wall. What color countertop would be just perfect? Antique Cream? Biscotti? ? ? Thanks.

We have selected Juparna Crema Bordeaux slab for counter top. Kitchen is bright with special walnut stained oak floors...same as the adjacent family room and dining rooms. Please suggest a few choices for the color (paint or stain) for the cabinets. And what style of cabinets are appropriate. The back splash would be my next question :-)

I would like a tile with a rich color for the inside and outside of the shower, rather than a natural color. I would like a Tuscan or Mediterranean feel. Please advise on color for the whower tiles.

Ashley: You should definitely get recessed lights. An antique cream cabinet will look better with Bordeaux than cherry because there is more contrast, and the Bordeaux will stand out.

In a previous comment you mentioned Crema Bor should work in a smaller kitchen if there is natural light. I only have 1 window that is fairly big, but isn't in direct sun light. Will it still work? We really like the stone. Do you think it would be better to use an antique cream cabinet instead of cherry? We are doing the kitchen from scratch so any cabinet/backsplash/floor is doable. I am trying to pick the stone first. I like beige, gray, hints of burgandy, tan, cream, but do not want anything that reads too yellow/orange/cream. Is there another stone that is better if Crema is too busy for a smaller kitchen?

All Granite and Marble - Moderator

Date: 2009-11-28 09:15:20

Ashley Kechter: It's a busy stone, if you have plenty of natural light you should be alright. The Crema Bordeaux varies greatly between batches. Make sure to put a sample of your cabinet against the very slab you are using, so you know how the final product will look like.

The walls are a very light taupe. I have one brown accent wall. I have also considered new venetian gold, but it seems too yellow next to the white cabinets.

Hello--we are starting our kitchen remodel. We have light/medium hardwood maple floors that we will be keeping. We have chosen a med/dark cherry modified shaker cabinet. It is called burnt sugar with a black glaze. Unfortunately we have to keep (for now) our fairly new appliances & they are bisque/biscuit color. We are having a very hard time finding a granite that will go with the cabinets & appliances. Will Crema Bordeaux work for us? Do you have any other suggestions? Absolute black was our first choice for the cabinets, but it will not work with the appliances. Thanks you so much!

We have clear hickory shaker cabinets, med oak floors, SS appliances. Would Crema Bordeaux work with this, we plan on backsplash as point on point light 6" tiles.

VICKIE: There are quite neat Faux painted ones. Basically the artist comes to your house and paints them to "complete" the hole in the granite. Otherwise I would consider Black.

Ilene: Well, color-wise it fits. Might get a bit busy in the room but not too crazy. Give it enough light and you should be fine.

I have maple cabinets on wall with coriander coffee glaze, antique bronz island (sort of ivory). We saw this stone in your yard and loved it. Do you think it would be too dark? The floor is Jeruselum Bone Stone. I wanted a light look but I liked the pattern and color on this granite slab

Can you recommend a modern back splash (kitchen) with creema borbeaux granite and maple cabinets? Small subway style colored glass???

Marilyn: Your answer is a light stone with a very strong pattern. This one just makes the cut (that's as dark as you'd want it).

Dolores: We will show you how the pieces will look at the seams. There's no guessing involved. Your input is vital at that stage of fabrication.

We are getting the darker cherry cabinets, small kitchen bi level home, what the wow of granite but dont want the kitchen to look to dark or small. What granite do you suggest. Will tile floor and backsplash lighter to look not too dark.

the granite has such an inconsistent pattern- what happens at the seam if patterns/colors do not match? Any suggestions to avoid or overcome this?

I have a pretty good sized kitchen with a large snack bar, honey oak cabinets and distressed hickory vintage floors, white walls that will be changed depending on color of granite countertop. I love the burgandy color in the creama boreadux. Do you think it would go with these wood tones?

Can you recommend a complimary stone for a backsplash for the Crema Bordeaux? We just had this color installed and love it but are having difficulity finding something that will blend in or not detract. Thank you.

How would Crema Bordeaux look with cider oak cabinets and deep rose walls. Floor is white vinyl with beige/taupe. No windows and small space.

I am debating between crema bordeaux and solarius, I have light maple cabinets, in your opinion which would look better, more appealing?

What price group is the Crema Bordeaux in? I received a quote from your firm but it just had the five groups, and did not specify the price

do you have any finished pictures of creama bordeaux in a kitchen? I would like to see it finished.

How will this granite look with a light maple cabinet?

All Granite and Marble - Moderator

tatiana: It will look great. It has enough cherry color in it to complement the cabinets and is lighter having enough contrast. Very organic, natural look. Excellent choice.
