Beautiful tile in shades of gray that I used as kitchen backsplash. Dark gray countertops, white cabinets. My contractor expressed doubts, but admired when done. Ended up with a bit of a wide grout line if that would bother you, no problem for me. I see this as a slightly blue gray, definitely not a brown gray. High shine to this tile. I love this tile so much I wish I had used it in bathroom renovation.
