What you need is a company that offers multiple collections of Carrara. A company that has taken the time to create collections and then split them into those collections based on color, shade and veining. Identifying the different looks.
At The Builder Depot we offer 3 Carrara Collections:
I suggested looking at our customers room scenes, reviewing what customers say about us by clicking the Google Trusted Store Logo on our website, buying samples and getting pictures before anything ships.
I would suggest these exact same things if you bought from us or from a retailer. Due diligence will pay off. We have wrote an article to help people make good online choices [here[(https://www.houzz.com/discussions/to-buy-marble-online-or-to-not-buy-online-that-is-the-question-dsvw-vd~3812051).
Incredible Bathrooms created using out4x12" Carrara Venato Polished for $8.00 a Square Foot (in 2016).
Bianco Carrara Backsplash. This turned out so well it ended up on the front cover of a magazine. The 3x6" Honed is $7.50 a Square Foot and 3x6 Italian Carrara Polished the same price as of 2016.
All prices are subject to change over time.November 17, 2016

love the marble tile backsplash. I love marble but don't want to use it on our island or countertops because of upkeep. Leaning toward a quartz composite. Would you got with a "fake" marble on counters and real marble subway tile, or is it not recommended to mix? Other ideas? Thanks. Designing a white kitchen very similar to this one but island is larger. Thanks.

It is a very nice Carrara. Most Carrara that comes out of the Italian mountain is quite gray. This 3x6" was chosen to match that perfect island.
We found that Carrara even from the same region has different styles. So we are the first company to split the product of Carrara marble into two styles. A whiter based less veined (like this in the picture) or a grayer based traditional Carrara.
Just tying to help the readers. We sell a very similar product (pics attached) for $7.00SF: http://www.thebuilderdepot.com/cama3xsuti.html
You can even see on the product page a customer doing a video of a similar installation.

File is in archive, so not sure spec.
We went with a darker grey so the tiles would stand out. if you go too light, you loose the brick pattern effect.

Thank you for your response! I chose this grout color. I'm hoping it would turn out great!

The Backsplash is an Italian Bianco Carrara 3x6" Subway Tile. Prices vary significantly from the well known high end super pricey retailers at $14.95 a square foot to companies like ours with strict cost control and massive volumes allowing us to sell for $7.50 a Square Foot. Italian marble has a light gray base with darker gray veining.
We also have another option our Carrara Venato 3x6" Subway Tile. Priced at $7.00 a square foot this product has a whiter base to that of the Bianco with fewer gray veins giving an overall less busy look (that is the strategy anyway - but it is natural stone, so strategy and what the mountain provides can be somewhat different).
I would always recommend getting samples of the lot you are going to buy and then before any shipping from the most expensive retailer to any online company, get them to send you pictures of what is coming to you. So when you open the boxes what you get it what you expect. Many of the sample boards in the showrooms have been up there for over a decade, the lots have changed significantly since then, so get samples and pictures.

No complaints from our client.
Although I have heard of the tiles behind the range at the lowest level browning a bit if the stove/range is used a lot. Some people get a metal plate across the back of the range (matching the range) to avoid this. But some don't like the look.

The grid is on the exterior of the glass. We unfortunately don't know the details of the window, the builder would have bought a supplier based on our drawings, so hard to say. I believe they were to crank open.December 29, 2013

nlemmon wrote:Aug 7, 2012What Houzz contributors are saying:
There are two kinds of marble in this Vancouver kitchen: 3- by 6-inch Cararra subway tiles on the backsplash (accented with gray grout) and a more pristine Statuario on the counters and that beautiful island. The cabinets are painted in Benjamin Moore’s Simply White.
You can also use the same or similar countertop material for your backsplash but break it up by selecting a tile format for your backsplash rather than a slab. This can be a budget-friendlier option than purchasing extra slabs to create a backsplash.Work with a tile and countertop expert to make this happenShown: Get the look with a Carrara marble counter or, for a more durable option, check out Misty Carrera from Caesarstone; Carrara marble subway tile backsplash
What Houzzers are commenting on:
What about light gray or white subway tiles? P: what color for the walls?
Fred does not white grout in the backsplash can we do something like this?
