Green tile is soothing, refreshing, and full of natural inspiration. If your kitchen or bathroom is calling for a bit of green, a tile backsplash might be the perfect place to put this peaceful shade in play.

To give you a glimpse into what a green tile backsplash might look like in your home, we’ve rounded up 50 of our most inspiring installations.

Green Tile Kitchen Backsplashes

In this minimalist kitchen, it only takes a drop of green pigment in the stacked square tiles to give the backsplash a fresh look that pairs beautifully with the warm wood cabinets. This look comes courtesy of our budget-friendly Essentials Collection, and ships in 5 days or less.

If you fall in love with a darker green glaze, show it off on larger shapes like our specialty Large Star & Cross. With this stunning combination, your backsplash will instantly draw the eye, especially in an open floor plan.

Variations in color found naturally in handmade tile give a backsplash distinct one-of-a-kind detailing, as you can see rippling across the Picket backsplash below (learn more about color variation here). Always be sure to sample your chosen colors and observe them in the space you'll install them in a variety of lighting conditions.

We love the way our soothing green Rosemary glaze complements the natural wood grain cabinets of this modern Scandi kitchen, effortlessly marrying old-world coziness with contemporary elegance.

A barely saturated green looks great on brick as well. The glossy glaze dresses up the rough brick while still revealing its textured character. Paired with dark cabinets the color leans grey.

The same brick paired with light cabinets lets the green tones lead. Notice the excellent craftsmanship on the mitered corners of the range hood.

One last look at this green brick glaze shows that if you can't decide to go lighter or darker with the cabinets, you can always match your paint and tile thanks to this particular shade's easy-on-the-eyes versatility.
