What granite looks like Caesarstone Raven?

9 years ago

Can someone suggest a good substitute for Caesarstone Raven? I love the look and color, but Caesarstone may be out of my price range.

Thank you!

We just chose Jet Mist granite over Caesarstone raven. The color is very similar, but the granite has more movement than the Caesarstone. In our area (new england) at least, the cost was almost the same, with the jet mist being just slightly less expensive. Hope this helps!

Pental Quartz has an exact replica of Raven. I think it is Coastal Grey. It should be a bit less expensive that Caesarstone.

Wish I had some pictures for you. Can you post pictures of yours? below are a few links that might help you. It looks (from google images) like it does indeed have a paint splatter look to the colors. Not pure gray. Too bad your original sample did not show this. ~bp Houzz Raven search http://www.houzz.com/Raven-Caesarstone Raven Caesarstone - Acetone splotches http://ths.gardenweb.com/forums/load/kitchbath/msg072126516597.html Raven CaesarStone Counters http://ths.gardenweb.com/forums/load/kitchbath/msg0810083514967.html Here is a link that might be useful: Raven Caesarstone--real pics please!

I really like that housebeautiful kitchen with the open shelves. Raven seems like a great product for people who don't mind going with a non-natural stone.

I also just starting considering Caesarstone as an alternative to Pietra, Honed Black Absolute and Soapstone. I went to the website and ordered samples of about five honed colors. They were $5 each, which isn't too bad considering how important a decision it is and I really want to see the colors in the light of my kitchen.

Which color Silgranit with Caesarstone Raven (medium grey quartz)
Q

We faced this exact same decision. Landed on Raven for the countertops and wanted to do a Silgranit sink based on all the positive reviews here. And then when we compared the colors, we just couldn't find a color combo we liked. As per above, the cinder is just about a perfect match--but that's not what we were looking for, we wanted a bit of contrast. Metallic gray and Anthracite were more contrast, but still not enough for us (and the Anthracite was awful dark). That left the light colors and we just didn't care for the combo. We ended up going in a completely different direction (Shaw's fireclay farmhouse sink), which unfortunately is also costing us a lot more $$$. That's just us. If you're not looking for a contrasting color, I think the Cinder could look very nice. Good luck!

I just love the top picture of the kitchen. Can anyone help me with what flooring and tile name was used?

Absolute Black granite is pretty close - it's an even, dark grey. It has some issues though, so read up on it before committing.

Kelley, It looks like one of the many porcelain wood look tiles. You can find them at Home Dept, Lowes and other more expensive sources.

Here is a link to one site, but if you Google, you'll find many of them.
