I am currently in the process of remodeling my kitchen. We have decided on light maple cabinets with a black granite counter top with little specs of gold. We have the stainless appliances. I do not know what to put on as a backsplash. Perhaps burgandy tiles, or no tiles and just a wall or should I go with those new stainless backsplashes. I need some advice.
Thanks.
How about glass?
Have you considered glass tiles? Maybe something along the lines of these: http://www.walkerzanger.com/wzproducts/displaysubcat2.asp
Depending on the look you want, a 1"square tile could add some texture and pattern. I am not so crazy for all the multicolor ones shown on the site. I tend to like the smaller tiles with only slight variations in color.

Rethink the black granite...
Hi. We had a black granite counter in one of the bathrooms in our previous home. What a nightmare. It seemed that the counter constantly had stains on it from water. Wash your hands, get a few drops on the counter, voila...stains. It drove me crazy because it was impossible to keep it looking clean. And I am not a "neat freak" by any means. It was just plain awful.
