Zellige is a\u00a0handmade Moroccan tile\u00a0with a shiny irregular surface that glistens in the light. These tiles work perfectly with most contemporary home designs because they come in a wide range of colors, from earthy brown to vibrant blue. Plus, each tile is unique, with slight variances in size and shade. They look just as good in large blocks in\u00a0any room you want to use them, or you can\u00a0use them to create bespoke patterns. However, with so many different options comes a conundrum. Which materials pair best with zellige tiles? The aim is, after all, to create a stunning aesthetic you won&#8217;t want to change in a few years.<\/p>\n<p class=\"col-body mb-4 leading-7 text-[18px] md:leading-8 break-words min-w-0 charcoal-color\">In almost all cases, you should be pairing natural-vibe zellige tiles with metal, wood, or stone. It&#8217;s the perfect way\u00a0to bring a room&#8217;s design together.\u00a0While these tiles are generally natural in hue, most are finished with a glossy glaze that looks great with accents made from warm metals like brass,\u00a0copper,\u00a0or gold.\u00a0You might also consider complementing a luscious zellige tile backsplash with a natural stone countertop \u2014 think marble,\u00a0granite,\u00a0or quartzite. Or if you want to create some contrast in your home design, install a matte finish limestone or ceramic countertop.<\/p>\n<p class=\"col-body mb-4 leading-7 text-[18px] md:leading-8 break-words min-w-0 charcoal-color\">Read more: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.housedigest.com\/663562\/creative-backsplash-ideas-for-your-kitchen\/?zsource=yahoo\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:55 Creative Backsplash Ideas For Your Kitchen;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">55 Creative Backsplash Ideas For Your Kitchen<\/a><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"heading-mb col-body heading-text-style font-bold charcoal-color\">Brass<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"relative col-body mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-3 right-3 size-10 md:size-[50px] lg:inset-0 lg:size-full lg:bg-transparent\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-0 right-0 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed inset-0 z-[4] size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div><figcaption class=\"relative text-[0.875rem]\/[1.25rem] figure-caption mt-1 line-clamp-2 pr-2.5\">\n<p>A white zellige tile backsplash on a vanity with a brass faucet and lighting fixture. &#8211; Zia Tile<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"col-body mb-4 leading-7 text-[18px] md:leading-8 break-words min-w-0 charcoal-color\">If you want to create a\u00a0spa-like\u00a0bathroom or a kitchen prep area befitting a TV chef, consider pairing your zellige tiles with\u00a0brass fixtures and accents.\u00a0Brass cabinet handles, faucets, mirror frames, and lighting pair well with light and dark colored tiles. Paler shades work best to elevate the space and ground the opulence\u00a0of the materials.\u00a0Since zellige is a handcrafted product, it breathes a sense of uniqueness into the room \u2014 though expert installation is recommended for a luxe finish.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"heading-mb col-body heading-text-style font-bold charcoal-color\">Copper<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"relative col-body mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><img alt=\"A kitchen with a red zellige tile backsplash and copper accents.\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"780\" height=\"438\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"fig-image-round\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/G9AdlwFaHd7LTw0u67B3Ng--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTUzOQ--\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/house_digest_articles_842\/5ab32fdd8f82f5786e832c406dfb6242\"\/><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-3 right-3 size-10 md:size-[50px] lg:inset-0 lg:size-full lg:bg-transparent\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-0 right-0 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed inset-0 z-[4] size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div><figcaption class=\"relative text-[0.875rem]\/[1.25rem] figure-caption mt-1 line-clamp-2 pr-2.5\">\n<p>A kitchen with a red zellige tile backsplash and copper accents. &#8211; Quadrostyle<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"col-body mb-4 leading-7 text-[18px] md:leading-8 break-words min-w-0 charcoal-color\">Similar to brass, copper complements imperfect zellige tiles well, but instead of creating an atmosphere of traditional luxury, it engenders a more rustic luxe vibe. Copper develops an\u00a0attractive green, blue, or brown patina over time. Using copper accents with this tile type boosts the\u00a0natural elements in your design, making a kitchen or bathroom feel warm and inviting.

Similar to brass,\u00a0soft gold\u00a0looks particularly good with this type of tile. While gold is undeniably elegant, gold accents are best used for a modern take on luxury. For example, install them in a room \u2014\u00a0whether it be for cooking fine meals or soaking in the tub \u2014\u00a0that basques in the stillness and tranquility of\u00a0quiet luxury.\u00a0If you want something sleeker and more dramatic, pair gold with\u00a0black zellige tiles.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"heading-mb col-body heading-text-style font-bold charcoal-color\">Limestone<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"relative col-body mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><img alt=\"A limestone sink with a white zellige tile backsplash and soft gold faucet.\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"780\" height=\"438\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"fig-image-round\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/KjAxkBLFnbHngHT42wiJxw--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTUzOQ--\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/house_digest_articles_842\/ad6a603051a4d429263e5e039eaa1a59\"\/><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-3 right-3 size-10 md:size-[50px] lg:inset-0 lg:size-full lg:bg-transparent\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-0 right-0 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed inset-0 z-[4] size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div><figcaption class=\"relative text-[0.875rem]\/[1.25rem] figure-caption mt-1 line-clamp-2 pr-2.5\">\n<p>A limestone sink with a white zellige tile backsplash and soft gold faucet. &#8211; Riad Tile<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"col-body mb-4 leading-7 text-[18px] md:leading-8 break-words min-w-0 charcoal-color\">Both zellige tiles and limestone are traditional materials in Moroccan design, so it makes sense they would suit one another.

Natural wood accentuates the imperfections of the handmade aesthetic, which ties the design together. Some timber options that work well with zellige tiles, depending on the glaze color, include cedar,\u00a0oak, or walnut.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"heading-mb col-body heading-text-style font-bold charcoal-color\">Quartzite<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"relative col-body mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><img alt=\"A bathroom vanity with a quartzite countertop and a backsplash made from green zellige tiles.\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"780\" height=\"438\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"fig-image-round\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/qpvB2u1INE7E1Hmaj97WtA--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTUzOQ--\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/house_digest_articles_842\/b33721596a60f1f565cf5993e2480629\"\/><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-3 right-3 size-10 md:size-[50px] lg:inset-0 lg:size-full lg:bg-transparent\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-0 right-0 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed inset-0 z-[4] size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div><figcaption class=\"relative text-[0.875rem]\/[1.25rem] figure-caption mt-1 line-clamp-2 pr-2.5\">\n<p>A bathroom vanity with a quartzite countertop and a backsplash made from green zellige tiles. &#8211; Quadrostyle<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"col-body mb-4 leading-7 text-[18px] md:leading-8 break-words min-w-0 charcoal-color\">Just like with other natural stone options, mixing quartzite and zellige tiles together in one space provides luxurious character.
