This kitchen backsplash looks hand-painted, but it's actually made of shimmery, pearlescent glass tile. We love how it looks behind the stove: such a unique detail in the kitchen!
This particular tile is Polly in Absolute White and Pearl from Beau Monde Glass, available from Ann Sacks Tile at $75 per square foot.

It is gorgeous but if I had pearls I would have clutched them and started fanning myself. That's more expensive than most Heath tiles.
My guess is that those cabinets form an appliance garage. That door looks like it flips up instead of a regular hinge. Notice how the pull is in a different spot than the regular uppers.
What's the thing coming out of the backsplash? Easily accessible water? Clearly this is an odd and interesting kitchen!
It's called a pot filler faucet!
Definitely beautiful!
