I agree, It is Calacatta Marble from Carrara Italy.

It looks like calcutta or carerra marble. My guess would be calcutta since it has a gold or tan veining in it that would pick up the backsplash tile color

I was able to find it on a website in USA, however the color looks really gray. In the picture the backsplash looks to be in the brown family as does the window treatment. Is the lighting off on the picture?
