Does anyone have real life photos of Caesarstone Aterra Blanca?

last modified: 3 years ago

I'm considering using Aterra Blanca (a new Caesarstone color) for kitchen counters and matching slab backsplash but haven't seen any real life photos of this new color yet. Does anyone have any photos of this color to share? Would appreciate it very much!

Curious if you went with this color? I’m looking for examples but have only found a couple. Hard to find warm neutral quartz tones.

Does anyone recognize this flower ??
Q

This is "Showmaster" with excellent performance. The picture is from the "Chateau Beloeil" as far as my fading memory allows for recapitulating lol. This hybrid is particularly dependent on good light conditions. If light is poor on the buds, then the flowers will remain very pale, and only some spotting is present. I would not exclude, that "Flamenco Queen" is the better alternative. BTW: "Showmaster" is obviously very vogorous - it produces stems that can be likened to broomsticks, and these provide enough supply to produce two seed pods of the full size from the 1st two florets of the umbel, stuffed with seeds, out of vase flowers nota bene!

Does anyone have Cosentino Eco Countertops?
Q
Comments (28)
I have Ecos white diamond. It is awful after 6 yrs. Glass popping out. Color completely changed. We have followed manufacturers instructions to use only soap and water to clean. We have good city water. 2 of us living in the home 9 months out of the year. Cosentino first blamed water..?!?!?! And now a very small shaded window in our kitchen. Are you kidding me. A kit hen that uses no water and has no windows is a great place to install this product. Have been working with Cosentino and installers for over 9 months and have gotten nowhere at all. I'm disgusted with this product and that they actually get away with advertising it as a non staining, no maintenance product. Did I mention there are well over 100 pieces of glass that have chipped out. See photo. That is the sample of the product we purchased 6 yrs ago and the actual stained color it is now. Horrible. I wouldn't say its non staining. It's not a spot, the entire counter has degraded and changed color. Although we were td even though it is recycled it would not degrade over time. Save yourself, time and energy and purchase something better with a real warranty. The warranty nothing. Just a bunch of words.

Has anybody had Caesarstone calacatta nuvo countertop installed?
Q
Comments (59)
What are good wall colors for this combination? I'm installing a Calacatta Novo countertop with white high-gloss IKEA upper cabinets and Voxtorp walnut look base cabinets. Using simple 3x6 white subway tiles for backsplash with gray grout and Rawtech white tiled floor (looks like light concrete). I'm thinking of introducing some greige to shake things up instead of a more typical white like Simply White or Cloud Nine (which looks great in the pictures above!) - Worn Leather Shoe, Upper West Side, or Quicksand looked interesting in the Benjamin Moore online program. Any tips?

Anyone have Aurea Stone in Paragon?
Q
Comments (55)
So had paragon installed... definitely not that white. Very grey in my kitchen for some reason... almost throws blue. Looks quite dark against the perimeter cabinets (maybe because there’s no window?). I did check with against my cabinet colour (white) but I guess until it’s installed in a slab you never know. I wanted white subway backsplash but I think that makes it look even darker/greyer so back to the drawing board with that. Kind of wishing I had gone with my second choice (misterio) but you live and you learn!

Did you end up going with Atterra Blanca? Do you like it?

Update: we did Attera Blanca and it is gorgeous! It is a bright clean white with very subtle veining. The veining is a slightly warm beige/brown/greige. Our outer cabinets are sherwin Williams Pure White for reference and the countertops are a bit brighter white, but still looks good. But you will prob need a non-white backsplash to break it up if you use with white cabinets (we did light grey). It’s definitely a brighter white than the pics on their website which make it look almost cream. It looks great against our blue cabinets on the island. So happy with it!

Thank you! It looks gorgeous! And your post addressed my concerns. We saw a slab in person and loved (and ordered) it, but then looked at it on the website and thought it looked very creamy and worried we’d made a mistake. I appreciate your response and photos! That’s just what we were hoping it would look like.

My sample of the stone looks beige? Is it more of a white background for the Aterra Blanca?
