Precision Stone Marble & Granite I agree with the first comment. I would go with a simple ceramic white 3" x 6" to contrast the counter tops. You also have the option of using the granite that was cut for the kitchen as a back splash, they can simply cut rips to the cover the missing paint.

If you wanted to go natural stone would would recommend either a tumbled marble or a durango travertine.

Good luck
