Anyone have Calacatta Ultra quartz countertops?

3 years ago

I am looking to put Calacatta Ultra quartz countertops in my kitchen. I wanted something pure white with minimal gray veining so this seemed to work perfectly. The issue is that when I got the sample and put it in my kitchen, I noticed that it appeared to have small sparkly grains within the white, instead of the appearance of just pure white. Is that how the slabs are? Please let me know.

What brand quartz are you looking to use? That sounds like just the color name.

Does anyone have Vadara sereno gold? Im considering it with off white cabinets. I’d love to see a picture of it installed and any pros or cons. I’m concerned about some of the spotting comments. i have Cambria in my bathrooms and love it, but didn’t see any patterns i liked in the Cambria. Is vadara made in china?

I am a fabricator. Don't pick based on computer images. For technical reasons a computer display cannot replicate a color hue exactly. (your eye can discern differences in hue that a computer or phone display can't.) Get samples of the candidate materials and then look at them in the new location, preferably mid and late day. This approach is imperative if you are fussy about color.

They aren't all made that way, so keep looking if you don't like the glitter.
