It's a microwave - 66 " from floor. Too high for me (5' 2"), not too high for Jeff, my husband (6' 2"). Jeff built a pull out shelf under the double ovens for me to stand on when using the microwave :)

The granite countertops were fabricated by DSF Granite & Tile in St. John's, Newfoundland. I believe the granite is Black Star Galaxy.

Backsplash Tile name - Thank you for providing the name of the store where you purchased the backsplash tile, but I was wondering, since it looks like it's been a little while since this kitchen was built, if you remembered what the name and/or color of the backsplash is? I'd really appreciate it if you knew either way. Thank you so very much!

What Houzz contributors are saying:

Becki Peckham added this to My Houzz: Custom Everything in a Newfoundland Transitional Home
The entrance opens up into an open kitchen Parsons built. White walls and cream cabinetry contrast a stained solid birch island top and granite counters, while the backsplash has cream ceramic mosaic tiles and a band of contrasting red-brown glass tiles. Double wall ovens make mealtime easier; Parsons loves to cook and daughter Samantha loves to bake.Wall paint: Wedding White, Glidden
Becky Harris added this to 15 Creative Backsplashes Full of Character
Tying it all together in Newfoundland. In the home of woodworker Jeff Parsons and his wife, Ellie Brennan, a ceramic mosaic tile backsplash accented with a red-brown glass band picks up on all the colors elsewhere in their stunning kitchen. See the rest of this home
Sam Ferris added this to 12 Designer Details for Your Kitchen Cabinets and Island
1. Crown molding. Few things leave designer fingerprints like crown molding does. It can bridge the gap between your wall cabinets and the ceiling, allowing for a seamless transition. In traditional kitchens, it can cap off the design with one final touch of detail.Cabinets: custom, Fine Grain Woodworking Inc.
