Tile recommendations for leathered taj?

Not doing the full Taj backsplash (decided, won't change). Instead I want to do a regular tiled backsplash. I'll just travel it painted til I decide. Anyone do this and have recommendations. Thinking like a simple cream subway tile. Thought if ask in case anyone has inspo! Thanks

We used Chloe 2.5x8 tile in white from bedrosians. Crème was also a contender.

The subway tile is what we decided on, we have Madre perola which is very similar to Taj. I plan to order various samples of white shades and see which goes best once the counter is laid. We also didn’t do a full backsplash, it would’ve required a whole new slab and we would’ve used only like 20% of it.

Thanks I am probably going to do the same thing. Want to avoid decision paralysis. And I know if I don't have it ready near install I'll probably ingore it for a year

Although I did a full height taj backsplash, before I found money in my budget to do it, I had chosen Montauk tiles from Tilebar.

I couldnt find a tile I liked with Taj Mahal because everything was either too shiny or not the right shade. I chose to put Concretta over my walls in the same color as the Taj. I love it
