Does anyone have MSI Statuary Classique quartz?

3 years ago

I am looking for feedback/photos of MSI Statuary Classique quartz. I like it because our cabinets are a creamy white, and this one is a little less white than the others. Our island is dark blue, and I thought the blue would be nice with the quartz. But now that its time to sign on the dotted line, I am wondering if I should choose a more "real" looking option like MSI calacatta monaco or mirragio. Anyone have advice or photos to share?

not much help...but we were going to go with the same, but are rolling with MSI Calacatta Classique as we felt is was closer to the "marble style" we are looking for. We are doing navy lowers and white uppers as well.

I chose MSI Statuary Classique, but went to choose my slabs today, saw Calacatta Monaco and am now torn.

Note. Dark is pretty in pics but heck to dustmop several times a day..choose colors that help themselves look nice like anything which is in the family of the soil that walks in on the bottom of shoes in your house or whatever is in the air. Don't go too dark or too white but a denim or dusty sage or weathered wood look or medium hue basically, can be very enduring and add warmth to the tile and marble surfaces--- unless you have only adults and a very clean exterior? Than your options are many and that is easy to go with your dream view of the space. It sounds very pretty so go with the idea that the oak will evolve after you recoup from the kitchen update!

I can’t speak to the MSI stone, but we have the calacatta gold and really like it. It is very white and the veining is more subtle than the other fake marble quartzes we saw. It was expensive, but since we used it for our backsplash and counter we decided to splurge.

Yes you're right! So I had the old Carrara marmi and they were getting a new lot in June that would be whiter so I think that ended up being the difference. They said the company switched manufacturers and the whole lot they had received was the off white tone of marmi. It's identical to the first picture! I had no idea there was a new vs old. Luckily they were very helpful and are allowing me to pick out any quartz from the show room and replace it for $300 whichever I choose. I could have gotten the new marmi but I would have to wait until June when it comes in. This felt like a great option to me though as the higher up quartz was not really in my price range at all. So I am happy with that and I got to look through many different styles of white quartz slabs in the warehouse and bring a few home to decide. They are going to replace the whole thing. Now I just have to choose between Cararra Morro and Calacutta Clara!

Same thing happened to me. Now I am trying to decide between Monaco, Valentin and Prado. The background of Valentin and Prado are almost exactly the same color as my cabinets (creamy white) but Monaco is a little greyer. I don't know whether I should try to make it match or not. I am so overwhelmed.

Abee, what did you decide. I'm in the same boat. I liked the statuary classique from the get go but for some reason I'm worried about pulling the trigger on it.

We ended up deciding on Fantasy Macaubus quartzite - My husband wanted natural stone (I couldn't talk him out of it), We have been very delayed with our kitchen so its not installed yet, but here is a photo of the slab
