Marble color change thinset.
When you combine that with the color change it looks like you intensionally picked a different color for the bottom row to create a border between the large vein marble squares above and the multi colored small tile on the floor.
A light weight thinset is commonly used on walls.

I remember doing a carerra repair in a shower a few years back.

If the tiles arent from the same lot the likely hood of a match decreases.
But when it comes to thinset installers face a choice of which thinset to use quick setting or regular with the proper choice depending entirely on the type of marble installed.
I hear it quite often dark grout can sometimes seep into the sides of a light marble and stain it causing it to look dingy overall.
I see ditra around the niche you planning on running ditra in the east of the shower.
Light weight thinset such as merlite 820 is less likely to sag if used properly.
What color thinset does he she use.
Don t forget to select the correct trowel size.
If the thinset shows through the grout it will be less noticeable.
The dark color on the marble was definitely moisture as it has lightened quite a bit.
For instance if you are installing granite tiles and have selected a gray toned grout color gray thinset is a good choice for installation.
