Keith: I'm leaning towards the Tan Brown, it will offset the light wood beautifully while complimenting the red accents in your house.

Have light color wood cabinets and light hardwood floors with white appliances. Paint is light beige and kitchen opens into sitting room where the light beige continues but also includes accent wall that is Grand Canyon Red. Looking at this Sapphire Blue/Brown, Tan Brown, and Black Pearl. With of these colors do you think would match the best and give best contrast/wow factor? Another thing to mention is there is a lot of natural light.

Dee: Two different stones, although similar. The blue will be more visible if you have plenty of natural light in your kitchen. This is a good choice for your set-up, it will add warmth.

medium stained maple cabinets, hard wood floor (not stained), considering saphire blue for counter top for counters and island, kitchen open to family room, looking for a paint color for both rooms, want the same color. thanks

I have light maple cabinets with light hardwoods, both about the same color. I am looking for a a darker color granite that will really pop in the kitchen. How visable it the blue in this stone? From some pics I see it looks more brown and in other the blue is very visable. Are sapphire blue and sapphie brown the same stone? Any other colors you could reccomend?

Annette: "Vanilla" will tie-in well, but I don't think your overall scheme will be too dark by staying with SB for everything, if you have a large kitchen and plenty of natural light.

I am using Sapphire Blue for our countertop with medium cherry cabinets. The island cabinets, however, are an espresso color. Should I use the same granite or do you think it will be too dark? If so, can you suggest a lighter color that will work well next to the SB?

ANNA PILLA: Going lighter will compliment the cherry cabinets. Venetian Gold would look very good.

Hi, I am in a crux over granite for our fireplace. We have chosen a cherry wood (traditional cherry wood stain) for our Family Room. The kitchen adjacent will have cherry wood cabinets with Giallo Vicenza granite (going for a Tuscan look). I am limited in my choice for granite between beige marble, blue pearl, venetian gold, tan brown, baltic brown. Do I go dark or do I go light, what is more aesthetically pleasing with a cherry wood fireplace? (and also complimentary to the adjacent kitchen)? Thanks so much. Anna

Dannielle: Well - you could compliment the floor nicely and use this granite, I think it would work.

Cookeegal: Go dark. plenty of contrast and a modern look.

Name: Cookeegal	Date: 2009-08-02 12:17:49
We have white cabinets, white tile floors and looking to put granite countertops in along with new stainless and black appliances -- go light or go dark on the granite color?

Hi! Thanks for your suggestions. We went with Sapphire Blue and love it with the Honey Maple cabinets! Any thoughts on a paint color to pull it all together?

All Granite and Marble - Moderator	Date: 2009-03-17 09:50:37
Carol B: Out of the two you mentioned, Sapphire Blue will provide way more contrast. So it will "pop" more. But, it's also going to darken the kitchen, therefore making it seem smaller. I would probably go with a giallo, but not necessarily Ornamental. Check out Vicenza, Firenza, Veneziano.

We have white cabinets and appliances in a smallish (12 x 15) kitchen. Leaning toward Sapphire Blue granite. Other choice could be Giallo Ornamental. If I go with one or the other, what floor tile color would work? Which granite would work best in my kitchen? If neither, any suggestions?

All Granite and Marble - Moderator	Date: 2009-03-09 13:09:55
amy: Most probably some sort of a brown/gold would match best. Is the cherry reddish?

All Granite and Marble - Moderator	Date: 2009-03-09 12:43:19
JR: Uba Tuba is a bit too common for my taste, so I would lean towards Sapphire Blue. It goes well with your cabinets and should look great with both stainless and black appliances.

All Granite and Marble - Moderator	Date: 2009-03-09 11:45:09
michelle: Giallo seems like a better choice. Especially with the white appliances.

got a dark cherry wood cabinet - what is the best granite colors to match with these cabinets? saphire blue? or ubatuba or absolute black or ?

Name: JR	Date: 2009-03-04 01:17:07
Hi. We\'re in the process of redoing everything in our small, but very well lit kitchen. We just got Honey Maple cabinets installed and are struggling to decide on a color of granite. We\'re VERY open to suggestions, but thinking about Sapphire Blue, Tropic Taz, or Uba Tuba. Any thoughts that might lead us in one direction or another?

Name: michelle	Date: 2009-03-02 19:08:11
we have cherry cabs w/ autumn stain, natural red oak floors, 2 north windows 50 sq. ft. of counter, white appliances, is saphire blue too dark. would we be better w/ a giallo?

All Granite and Marble - Moderator	Date: 2008-11-18 13:46:45
danielle: Excellent combination of colors. Sapphire Blue should fit right in.

All Granite and Marble - Moderator	Date: 2008-11-05 08:42:20
Phyllis : No objections here. Sapphire Blue will do the job.

Name: danielle	Date: 2008-10-08 19:16:01
I am consdering sapphire blue granite for my kitchen countertop. The floors are a light cream color limestone and the cabinets are an off white/swiss coffee color with brushed nickle stainless steel appliances.i live at the beach and want a clean beach cottage feel.

Read that SS goes better with Baltic Brown than white appliances. Putting in a Black Cooktop and Micro above what is the objection to the Sapphire Blue over the Baltic Brown? What color paint? Prefer a dark granite over the giallo

All Granite and Marble - Moderator	Date: 2008-10-08 12:56:24
Phyllis : Baltic Brown or Giallo. I would lean towards the Giallo though.

Name: Phyllis	Date: 2008-10-04 00:29:46
We have white with grey ceramic tile floor, white applances. We are getting medium maple cabinets. We are considering Baltic Brown, Sapphire Blue or Giallo Veneziano. Which will work better in the kitchen. The kitchen is not a bright kitchen!

All Granite and Marble - Moderator	Date: 2008-07-25 11:34:55
Eve: The blue is not that visible from a distance. Only when you get close you will see the bluish -grey in it. Good choice.

Name: Eve	Date: 2008-07-21 22:35:23
Installing medium maple cabinets;taupe/lt.grey/cream stone look laminate floor and have white appliances. Do you think the Sapphire Blue granite works? The brown appears to play off the maple color and the black gives contrast. Concerned with how much blue is visible. Was also looking at Tan Brown (426). Thanks.

All Granite and Marble - Moderator	Date: 2008-04-08 16:48:01
BF: It would certainly give you a lot of good contrast. As far as it being too dark, it all depends on the size of the kitchen and the amount of light you have there.

I'm considering a blue sapphire countertop to go with my white beadboard cabinets--do you think it would it be too dark?

All Granite and Marble - Moderator	Date: 2008-04-03 14:52:00
Anna: I would probably go with the Saphire blue. It seems to fit the bill for both woods.

Name: Anna	Date: 2008-03-13 02:49:37
I have natural pine floors. The granite I am looking at is blue pearl,tan brown,sapphire blue.(or another blk color). I am currently choosing cabinets. If I choose cherry cabinets what dark granite would go best? And If I choose a med/dark brown cabinet what dark granite would you choose?

Nancy D: Sounds like a plan!

Name: Nancy D	Date: 2008-02-22 10:03:45
Yes, exactly..We'll look at this next weekend and then the Desert River or Giallo Monte Carlo for black island

All Granite and Marble - Moderator	Date: 2008-02-21 11:11:45
Nancy D: This stone has quite a bit of black in it. It would work with the black cabinetry and definitely with the light. Dark vs light granite - light will accent the island, dark will accent the light cabinets.

Name: Nancy D	Date: 2008-02-17 22:37:00
We have off white cabinets with coffee glaze-neutral porcelein floor - large island is black distressed; very french country large kitchen. would this complement both black island and offwhite glazed cabinets? We LOVE your warehouse - so many choices! Torn between lite and dark granite - or do dark on cabinets and a lighter shade on island?
