granite and backsplash

Hello. I love this kitchen and my kitchen cabinets are a similar color (a dark, deep brown with a VERY slight hint of red...chocolatey, I would say) and my floor tiles are beige (maybe with a slight hint of taupe). However, I have had a nightmare of a time finding a granite that would match. Can you please tell me which one this is? Is it the Giallo?

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting us. Yes, the granite for this project was indeed the Giallo. If your cabinets are similar in color then this granite will go beautifully with it.

    Can you please give me some other recommendations for a similar color scheme? I do not like the yellow that comes out in most Giallo slabs. The Verona, for instance is very yellow for me. What do you think of this Bianco Antico? Would you consider it to be too grey?

    Hi Carter Décor. Thank you so much for the advice. I was actually very relieved to hear you say that Antico is on the Grey scale because I thought that I was the only one who could see that!! The lighting in the picture is not great but if you saw my cabinets you would see a very small hint of red in them. I had specifically asked for "dark brown with a small hint of red"...My problem so far has been that I have tried so hard to FIT my swatches with the trending colors, such as Bianco or Alaska White, that I overlooked some colors that may actually go better. Just yesterday I found a Typhoon Bordeaux. It's a little busy but the colors look spectacular with my swabs. I am planning to go back and give it a second look to see if I still like it and I will upload a picture so you can give me some feedback. Thank you again!!

    Hi Carter Décor. What do you think of this one? Definitely less grey in this one

    This one is Typhoon Bordeaux. Is a little busy but I think it matches well, no?
