Matt : Tumbled Marble tiles will match nicely. |

Tammy: Are you trying to tie the two rooms together? If so, these should do the job. |
|

Tim: With amber Maple, you should be ok to use the light yellow/gold stones such as the New Venetian Gold, Giallo Ornamental, or Santa Cecilia. The more difference in brightness there is, the more "pop" you'll get from the countertops. |

Donna: It might be. The idea with the black strip isn't bad though. Perhaps you can do that while using a tumbled marble tile? |
|

Stephen: You can do either black or stainless steel appliances. |

Our master bedroom will have nvg countertops in the bathroom with tobacco cabinetry. The bath tiles are almond color. We are thinking of painting the bed & bath area in an Olympic paint color called Oak cast (kind of mustard) is that a good match/contrast? Any suggestions for floor tile color? |

Hi, I have smaller L type kitchen with Amber Maple cabinets and stainless steel appliances. Can you please recommend a granite? I also plan on using ceramic tile floor and backsplash (not sure what color yet? Counter will help determine this). Thank you much!!-Tim |

I have a creamy porcelain tile with a gold tone and some gray hightlights, medium cherry shaker cabinets, and stainless steel appliances. If I use New Venetian Gold for the countertops, what kind of backsplash would look best. I was considering having some NVG tiles cut and perhaps putting a black strip halfway up those tiles. Too much granite? |

I have got Maple Nutmeg cabinets with a Chocolate Glaze. Is Venetian Gold a good choice? If so what color appliances do you suggest? |

Lisa Mc: Mixing two granite colors is a though task. The surefire way would be to do Absolute Black on the island... |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-10-08 12:38:00 |
Vesna: Depending on the particular batch of NVG, it should work. The more contrast within the slab, the better. |

In our new house, our cabinets will be mocha. Our bi-level island, however, is cream. If I used New Venitian
gold with the darker cabinets, I would like to find a darker granite to compliment the NVG to go on the island. any ideas? |

I have Schrock Briarwood Cabinets...Would Giallo Veneziano go with them ?
I am looking for some contrast bout not too loud.If not what would be a nice blend..I am installing hardwood floors in kitchen ( light stain |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-09-26 12:21:00 |
Kara: If you want to keep it warm, I'd go with NVG. For more contrast go with Tropical Brown. Note that TB has a very slight greenish hue to it. |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-09-26 12:00:06 |
Joy: It's a good choice. The darker spots you see are actually cranberry/ruby in color. Should flow nicely into your color scheme. |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-09-25 17:28:59 |
Martha: You should be fine. |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-09-25 14:54:52 |
Susan R.: It's a good choice. For the floors I would use natural maple. |
|

|

We are building a new kitchen with dark Nutmeg stain cabinets, stainless steel appliances and red oak floors. Would you recommend the new venetian gold for granite tops? Other suggestions? |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-09-19 16:45:14 |
michelle: For maximum contrast I'd go with a dark brown (matching to the glaze). A more subtle approach would be a darker beige with a hint of yellow. |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-09-19 16:29:06 |
Lue: Firstly, I would advise the Venetian Gold as it's much warmer than the dark ones. With a slate floor it will brighten the room up. Secondly, the streaking is more of a improper cleaning issue rather than the sealer. The sealer bonds with the stone and solidifies so there is no way for it to streak. |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-09-19 10:37:39 |
David: Not a lot of contrast there. If the kitchen doesn't get much light, this would be good. If you have more room and light, I'd suggest a darker color. |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-09-19 10:21:47 |
Christina: Haven't you looked at the slabs prior to fabrication and installation? You seem surprised with how it looks. That's not good. |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-09-19 09:38:44 |
Lisa: For the floor I would probably go with either maple tile, or if you want ceramic, then a color that's similar to the granite. For walls, use a shade of the cherry. |
|

Selected OVG countertops;desert shade tile backsplash w/Blk Galaxy 4\" insert;Kilim Beige walls ; Maple cabinetry w/saddle stain; SS appliances; and desert shade (creams/gold/beigey) floor tile. Will OVG work or should we go darker for granite choice? I don\'t like dark colors and prefer warm tones. |

We have cottage style natural cherry cabinets and are leaning toward Venetian Gold Original Granite, UbaTuba or Black Pearl. Our appliances are stainless and we want a slate floor. I would appreciate help on the decision. Also, I work in many kitchens and notice that dark granites seem to streak,. Is this a sealing issue? |
|

I currently have butterscotch floor (medium color), maple cabinets (light) with black laminate counter tops. A friend of mine just re did his kitchen in NVG. I really like this color. Do you think this would look right with the colors I described? I have found some pictures online similar to this and they look pretty good. Thanks in advance! |
|

I just had new venetian gold installed in my kitchen. But, it doesn't look gold at all, looks more white even gray? Why do some look so gold? That is what I was looking for. |

I have autumn cherry cabinets and venetian gold countertops, what color floors and paint for the walls should I do? |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-07-25 11:37:15 |
Nadine: One way to do this would be to do 4" square tumbled marble tile and a row of smaller glass tiles that match the wood. |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-07-25 11:32:25 |
Meleda: The darker you go the more contrast you will get. Get a few samples and check. |

margie : Any good? Sure :) |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-07-17 18:28:41 |
LouAnn: NVG is good but might lack contrast with the cabinets... Try St. Cecilia and Giallo Ornamental. |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-07-17 18:26:15 |
Nina: Both are very similar and will work fine. With NVG you'll get a bit more warmth. |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-07-17 18:24:39 |
Eileen: Patience patience!! :) Sorry Eileen. There's only one me and over 200 questions a week. |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-07-17 17:30:41 |
Eileen: For high contrast this will be perfect. Something more toned down would be Tan Brown. |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-07-17 17:29:10 |
patty : Either one. They're really not so different. |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-07-17 15:54:05 |
Eileen: NVG is a decent choice. Basically stay light and in warm tones, avoid green and blue. |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-07-14 12:16:30 |
Amy: Perhaps something darker? |
|

Which of the lighter granites would look best with medium stained maple cabinets and a creamy light floor. The kitchen opens off a family room with a creamy limestone fireplace and wood floors that are darker than the kitchen cabinetry. |

priya: I'm afraid it might lack contrast. |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-06-30 12:46:38 |
liz: Very wide selection of colors there. Basically stay in the pastel colors and you should be fine. |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-06-30 12:39:39 |
jenni: Keeping the stone light will definitely help. Try to go for a tone that's different from the cabinets in order to retain at least some contrast. |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-06-30 12:23:45 |
Russ: Your points are very true. Why not go for something a bit darker than NVG? |
|

I have dark cherry cabinets, what granite should I use? I am buying black appliances. I will decide on the floor and backsplach after I pick the granite. |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-06-25 10:15:57 |
PRAGNA: I would sacrifice a little of the lightness for more contrast. |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-06-25 09:27:30 |
Kimberly: That depends on how different they are from the stone. Generally speaking, contrast is desired when selecting the countertops. |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-06-24 16:57:24 |
Lynn: It fits the bill. |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-06-24 16:44:12 |
Pamela: Go for the one that has more color to it (it varies based on the stone's origin). |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-06-18 16:07:31 |
Chris: Can you describe the color for me? I think you're in the right tones, but wanted to make sure. |

We are building a new house. We had settled on dark hard wood floors and creme cabinets with black glaze and a black vent a hood and ubatuba tops. Granite is such a beautiful stone and we are worried that ubatuba will be plain and only have one color, but we also worry that VG or SC will blend in with the cabinets. Any suggestions? |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-06-06 11:59:23 |
Anne: If your cabinets are significantly darker than this stone, then go for it. Otherwise it all might blend together too much. |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-06-06 11:55:27 |
Michelle: It does have the "ruby" spots in it. Depending on how light/dark the cabinets are, this could be a nice toned down choice. |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-06-06 11:49:33 |
Diane: Aren't they too close to the color of the cabinets? |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-06-06 11:32:52 |
Joyce: I'm afraid you're getting a tad too close to the color of the cabinets. Try something darker to create more contrast. |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-05-30 13:22:20 |
Lynn: I'd go with the darker color. More contrast, more interest, just overall a more visually pleasing combination. |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-05-30 13:14:37 |
richard wotruba: Are you sure that's not too light? Since it's a light room already and white cabinets, why not go a bit darker? |

|

|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-05-19 15:37:33 |

Siva: Ubatuba will probably separate itself better from the corian. |

I have new venetian gold or ubatuba for my new small kitchen island with dark cherry finish. Please give your opinion. Island is contrast to kitchen (natural oak cabinets and beige corian counter top and back splash) |

Jennifer: I think there's too much gold/beige in there for a gold top. Maybe a bit more into the brown side. |

David: Oak usually allows you to go dark or light. Now, there are a lot of color options in both categories. I would recommend something like the Tan Brown as a dark option and perhaps Santa Cecilia or Giallo Ornamental as a light option. |

I have natural colored red oak cabinets. My flooring is ceramic gold dust. It tends to look taupe. My walls are light beige, appliance white. What would be best color of granite? |

I am looking for a counter top color to go with Schrock cherry wood cabinets with Brierwood stain and light oak floors. |

I have medium oak cabinets with black and stainless appliances. We are going back and forth on dark vs light granite counter tops. Could you please suggest something that would work with these color combinations? |

Jenni: Yes, it matters a lot. Light cream cabinets won't provide the contrast (or at least not as much) that's needed to make everything look sharp. The ideal combination would be: Dark, reddish cherry cabinets, Black appliances, neutral (travertine) floor. |
|

Rick: If the cabinets are dark, then you don't have to worry at all. The contrast between the tops and the cabinets will make both shine. |
|

Tricia: That is purely your personal choice. I would lean towards the beige. But that's just my own humble opinion ;) |

We have dark stained raised panel cabinets. We have almond tile backsplash and I am wondering how the New venetian gold countertop would look and what color tile floor would you suggest. This is a small 9 x 12 kitchen with almond appliances with some black. Thanks. |

Would a golden or beige tone granite (New venetian gold or St. Cecelia dark) look better with a victorian white cabinetry (candlelight cabinetry) kitchen and natural oak color hardwood flooring? Can't decide!!!Thanks in advance!!! |

Rob: Overall you have a light theme. I think you could go a bit darker with the countertops. Otherwise it will blend in. |

Diane: Usually within a business day or two. |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-01-16 09:29:51 |
Gene: If you're looking for a low contrast setup, then yes. If you want your granite tops to be more visible, I would suggest a darker color. |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-01-16 09:28:24 |
Diane: It depends on the rest of the kitchen, but based on just the cabinets, I think it might be a bit too close. |

joan: Venezian Light is more pale. |
|
All Granite and Marble - Moderator | Date: 2008-01-16 09:20:06 |
Kevin: Yes, definitely go darker. NVG and SC will both blend in too much. |

We have hickory cabinets with a Schrock Stain on them. The color of the stain is Heritage.Would new ventian gold countertops look good with this. Our appliances are almond with some black and and we are thinking of a light floor. Any suggestions? |

I have cream cabinets and brazilian cherry floors and walls painted latte. I was thinking NVG or Santa Cecilia; would this look good? or should I go any darker? |
|

Barbara McLouth: Not sure what color exactly your cabinets are, but try the darker golds, like golden beach, golden valley.. |

We are building a new home and the color cabinets I am interested in is called Cinnamon. I plan on having wood floors in the kitchen and stainless steel appliances. Would New Venetian Gold look good with the color of the cabinets? If not, can you suggest something else. Thanks. |

I've got light maple cabnets and gunstock hardwood floors in my kitchen, do you have any suggestions for granite color? I'd like something with black and light colors...but not something that would clash. Thanks |
