What is the grout color used on this backsplash?

7 years ago

Looking at this arabesque bianco gloss ceramic wall tile as a kitchen backsplash with Anchors Aweigh (Navy) lower cabinetry/island, and white upper cabinets. What is the grout that most use with this backsplash? Not sure if it should be white to let the shape of the tile speak or if it should be a bit darker to highlight the shape of the tiles?

Hi Devin,

It depends on the look that you like! Coordinating grout color creates a nice, neutral pairing but will not highlight the tile pattern that you choose. Contrasting grout color can be a more interesting and dramatic option that highlights the tile and pattern that you pick. We believe this is our PRO-GROUT EXCEL STD WHT, but might be another white grout we offer. For more grout colors view here: https://www.tileshop.com/installation-care/grout/colors
