Green shaker has quietly taken the place grey held for a decade, and for a better reason than fashion: a muted green reads as a neutral in a room that already contains wood and stone, which is what most kitchens are.
Sage is barely a colour - a grey-green that behaves like a warm neutral. On a shaker door it is the safest green in the range, sitting beside oak, walnut and white without asking for anything.
Ivy and jade are properly green. They want the counter and floor to stay quiet, and they reward brass hardware. On an island under a pale perimeter they are one of the strongest looks available.
Deep forest green is the anchor version - close to navy in weight, and it gives a traditional shaker kitchen a depth that a mid-tone cannot.
Both are warm underneath, so a green shaker cabinet next to an oak floor or a walnut island does not read as two colours fighting. That is the pairing to build on: green cabinets, wood somewhere in the room, and a counter that stays out of the argument.
What does not work is green against a strongly veined green or grey-veined counter. One of the two has to be plain.

It is the safest green available, because it behaves as a warm neutral rather than as a colour. It sits beside oak, white and stone without needing the room to accommodate it.
A quiet one - white or warm-white quartz, or a plain stone. A heavily veined counter over a properly green door gives the eye two patterns competing for the same attention.
The island is the lower-risk version and the most commonly ordered: a green island under a white or wood perimeter keeps the colour without committing the room to it.
Yes - sample doors are at the Norcross showroom, and looking at one flat on your own floor at more than one time of day is the only reliable way to judge a finish.
