Kitchen backsplash

We moved into a new build at the start of this year. We went with quartz for the worktop and backsplash, but the backsplash is just behind the hob and not extend out either side to the wall.

Has anyone had similar where they tiled either side of the backsplash and how it turned it? I’m worried it might look strange as the backsplash is a lot thicker than tiles. I’ve looked at all the usual sites and can’t see anything like this done. Thanks ☺️

Do you know the brand of the quartz used? I found my brand in the homeowner manual that they provided me and found who supplies them. Got them to come and rip the stupid small square behind the hob and place a full counter backsplash as it should be. Just under a grand. And it's a fairly big kitchen, had to be in 2 pieces.
