KDs (and anyone else),

Do you know where I can buy either of these backsplashes?

Backsplash 1. It might be a 4 piece decorative tile because of the little vertical line.

Backsplash 2. This could be a marble mosaic or possibly a decorative tile.

Neither take up the whole backsplash, they are around 16 to 24 inches wide, which is why I had to resize the pictures so much.

    Ebay would be your inexpensive spot to find similar mosaics. I've had several clients order pieces from Lebanon from various Ebayers. Or, you can search local tile shops to see what they can special order for 5 times the price but more local accountability.

    I'd try Ebay too.

    That is where I got my two. They are both sort of "urn with fruit" with a bit of a greek look to them, both are multi-tile patterns and one is bigger than the other. My problem is I bought them 4 years ago and now I'm not sure if I want to use them. Orignal plan was to put the big one over the sink and the smaller one over the range.

    I know it took about three weeks of watching before I found once I wanted. Some times the hardest part is figuring out how to limit your search to not have to spend hours looking at all the listing.

    Macy, Live_wire_oak, I searched ebay and the big mosaic sellers and even emailed them pictures. I didn't have any luck so far. Also local tile stores, no luck. They all told me if you come up with a design, we can have an artist copy it onto tile or mosaic. I am not a good enough artist to make a design.

    If I don't find either of these, my default plan is to use a monochromatic raised fruit bowl that I did find in biscuit color and whitish color, probably with the same color field tile and black marble frame. Would biscuit or whitish backsplash go best with neutral white cabinets and black stone countertops?

    Why the need to be so literal? You may never find the "exact" same one, of if you do, it may be extremely cost prohibitive. Any mosaic design that has the right mix of colors for your kitchen, is the right size, and you like would work as a focal point. Don't lock yourself into a search so tightly that you can't accomodate some variance in the end product. Browse and view the possibilities!

    Live_wire, I only saw one mosaic that had those colors after viewing all those websites. I guess it wasn't what I was looking for but I could use it if I had to.
