We inherited this color of granite when we purchased our home.
I am am having a heck of a time finding a paint color to go with it. I do not want something yellow or golden, but I am having a hard time finding the right color.
We have espresso cabinets, medium tone hardwoods, and stainless appliances.
If you have this granite, what color are your walls? I am looking for a light neutral.

This is pretty close to the color of granite that we have. Our walls are taupe so not much help.  |

I Google Imaged: Venetian Gold granite paint palette and got some swatch images. Here is an example.  |

Here's a couple of more colors: I think with your darker cabinets, I'd choose a lighter color like this softer tan or even the roman column.  |

We have it. I painted our walls a sand color. Slightly warmer than that buff color above.

We have this granite with cherry cabinets. I used Sherwin Williams Sand Dollar.

We have this granite in our home. Dark cabinets and darker wood floors. Our walls are a cream color. Not super bright white, but not too yellow, either.

We have it - cream cabinets with antiquing. Wall color is light but needs to be painted - just not a priory right now.

We had that at our old house. We did a beige/tan when we liked that look. When we changed to another color we picked Amazing Gray. It looked great with our kitchen and all the areas we used it.

I just got it but the slab I got is a little less yellow and had more cream/white to it. I used Acier by Sherwin-Williams on the walls. Cabinets were painted white.
I'm not sure how your kitchen is laid out, but my walls are pretty far away from my countertops. Just a thought.
Good luck!!

That looks like what is in our bathrooms. Our cabinets are a lighter color. Right now they are a color close to the Softer Tan (this was what was here when we bought the house). I'd like to go grey in the kids/guest bath.

If you were looking for something other than a sand color, which I think would look great...
A nice soft burnt orange would look great or even a soft teal for a pop or color.

Try a sample of Sherwan Williams Repose Gray. We have similar granite and this color looks great with it. Our gr site may not be quite as golden toned as yours. But try it and see what you think.
