Lovely backsplash tile with the counter, but on my monitor it looks a bit cool compared to your warm floors.

Is there really that much of a color shift between the two cabinets in real life? Because wowza it's glaring on my monitor.

Wow I see that too! No, it must be a shadow so weird!!

I'm not really loving the backsplash tile. I think it is rather underwhelming. I think you can do better. Also need to factor in your floors and not pick a cool backsplash that will fight with that warm tile😀

Thank you. Any advice on what color I should lean towards?

I like it, try it placed vertically

I also have these colors. The diamond shape comes in regular subway but they didn’t have a sample

The two stacked on the end are markoto shoji white

No, too busy for the Taj. I agree with Carrie B. and Susan.

Taj lately leans gray/ taupe and it looks like that is your case.

i would try to get a solid tile that blends with the lightest color in the counter.

I would stay away from anything gray (cool). The brown (warm) veins in Taj are prominent. I would suggest matching the tile backsplash to your cabinets (which look perfect with your counters, btw).

The last batch looks really grey on my monitor. I would try some samples in several shades of off white - closer to the color of your cabinets.

Definitely no to the tiles you have shown...way too cool/grey. As above, match the tile to the warm cream or brown shades in your counter to help tie it in with cabinets and floors.

Try Astoria tile in Bergamot. https://sonomatilemakers.com/product/astoria-tumbler/.

I did the same Tajmahal backsplash with the Taj Mahal counter tops and I am loving that!

I’m fond of the white — let the counter be the star.

Agree with looking for the right white/cream tile and to stay away from the gray. The countertop is the star of the room and your backsplash is supposed to be unnoticed. Simple.

@Heather R Greetings! Interested what you went with as we've having same dilemma -- thank you!

I’d use the counter material as the backsplash.
