turned out great but these tiles require some effort.
being a small beveled tile, grouting takes a while. you have to pull the excess grout out of every grout line and when you have small tiles there are many small grout lines.
also since they are natural stone they have natural cracks, cut slow and careful with a wet saw.

These tiles were a perfect pair to the MS International Greecian White wall tiles that we purchased for our shower. The larger tiles were more ranging in color than we anticipated but these small tiles picked up all the colors and really tied the whole project together. The product was easy to work with, would recommend and use again.

Beautiful and subtle. I just installed antique white colored kitchen cabinets and used this on the bar side of my island to avoid shoe scuffs. It's subtle and doesn't clash with all the other stone work I had done.

Easy to cut and work with. It is very nice looking when it is done. Just know that each of the rectangular pieces has 2 bevels. When you're grouting it is highly advisable that you level the grout to the lower bevel edge. It looks much better that way. It's harder to do but if you use UNSANDED grout you will be fine. The grout lines are much too thick if you level the grout to the higher bevel and doesn't look good.

Gorgeous tile looks expensive!
This tile is beautiful easy to instal and looks gorgeous in in the shower. It looks very high end and much less expensive than buying it from a specialty store.

White Grecian back splash tile
The tile is strong and durable. It was easy to install. My kitchen backsplash looks like it came out of a magazine. I love it! I sit in the family room and stare at the backsplash beholding it's beauty.

Looks high end and classy
This tile is beautiful and is the icing on our 90's kitchen update. We hit a few stores so we could hand pick our tile sheets as with all natural stone there is color variation. We did the install ourselves and used bullnose pencil on the edges since our kitchen is open concept. We went with white grout. The grouting takes some patience -- the bevel makes it a little more difficult but its such a nice detail it was worth the time. It looks really expensive and goes well with our LG Hi Macs countertop and newly painted cabinets. We get tons of compliments on it. Highly recommended.

Couldn't be happier
Perfect finish to our kitchen renovation. We had been to many high end specialty tile stores and after numerous trips back and forth with samples we opted for the beveled marble to play off our marble counter top. The grays and whites matched nicely with the counter top and the browns played off the cabinets. It really is an elegant finish. As many have already noted, the grouting is a little tedious at times but well worth the effort. We found the job less daunting with two people. One using a float and another fifteen minutes behind with a damp sponge. Using a finger to remove the grout from the beveled edge seemed to work the best and then finish with the damp sponge. Make no mistake, it's a lot of work but well worth the effort. We used the matching chair rail above the stove stop and a herring bone pattern to accent that area. Found it easier to build that on a flat surface in the garage and then transfer the pattern in tact to the kitchen for installation. If you're looking for a high end finish that won't break the bank, this is for you.

Magnificent make over
With our pleasant experience in designing our new kitchen with the help of Linda, and the professional installation by Frankie, this backsplash was the crowning touch. Kudos Home Depot.

Beautiful natural stones
Great product. Looks amazing. Cutting details into the stone was a challenge. Seal first before grouting. I would say put painters tape over the tiles with greater pores to avoid grout setting in.

Amazing Tile...Poor Packaging/Shipping
Ordered this tile and received it very quickly. The tile looks great, can't wait to get it installed!! Unfortunately out of the 40 pieces we ordered 12 had some form of damage - cracked corners to completely broken tiles. Home Depot is making it right by providing a small discount on the replacement tiles, but the hassle of returning and dealing with delays is frustrating.

Looks Special Order and Expensive!
Add "marble" to you kitchen in an affordable way! We decided to go with this back splash because we liked the look, could buy it in store and met our deadline. The sheet I brought home to sample was grey and white. When I went back to get 60 more square feet I ran into some trouble. So much of the inventory was gold/brown/yellow/white/grey...I had to go to 4 Home Depots on a Sunday night 8 months pregnant and pick through the boxes! Fortunately it was sold in sheets so I could be choosy but it was a lot of work! I loved the bevel, too. However, when the tile guy installed it, he did a sloppy job and you can see the bevel but not exactly how I would have liked it. Overall, everyone who visits makes a positive comment about the back splash and I'm glad I was able to pull it together.

Great tile for backsplash
These tiles look great on my kitchen backsplash. The tiles are high quality but pretty difficult to grout due to the deep bevel. All in all, I would recommend them but keep in mind that you will have to spend a large amount of time with the grout, especially removing excess grout to expose the beveled edges. It is well worth it in the end once the project is done!!

Beautiful for kitchen backsplash
We had this tile professionally installed in our kitchen for a backsplash and it's beautiful! The beveling gives it a lot of depth and is much more interesting than regular flat subway tile. This was a good choice and I highly recommend this tile.
We used it above the countertops and sink, and then complimented it with the greecian white marble octagon mosaic (12 x 12 sheets) above the stove framed with the greecian white pencil. There is a lot of color variation in the mosaic pieces (white, gray, brown) which looks nice...just don't expect it to be all white. There were very few chips, scratches or other defects. 10% overage in ordering tiles was more than plenty to make up for any unusable sheets.
One thing I want to share though is that the grouting of this tile is extremely time consuming because of the beveled edges! The grout needs to be cleaned off of all beveled edges by wiping the edges with the corner of the grouting sponge or with a wet towel. This is the proper way to grout this tile, otherwise if the surface is grouted flat, the grout lines will be huge and you won't see the beveled edges. Also, regarding grout, you need to use unsanded grout. We were told that sanded grout would be best (unsanded grout can show cracks), but we tried sanded grout on a sample piece and the sanded grout scratches the tile.

Received multiple boxes and almost none of them had the gold veining through which was the main reason I wanted this marble. Mainly just grey and white marble, I’ve seen much better lots at other places. Ended up returning this

I returned it because you failed to notify me when the tile was shipped and so, thinking it wasn’t coming, I bought something else.

The tile I received looked NOTHING LIKE THE PICTURE!
There was no blue in any of the tiles. This is false advertisement. I returned the product and will search for this tile elsewhere. I realize that there are variations, but this was not even close.

Not as picture shows!
I have this tile backsplash in my kitchen and ordered more because I changed an appliance and needed it to fill in the gap. However, it was not the same! The tile I received does not have any of the darker grey tiles. How can I get this tile?
