Calacatta Venato Quartz is an engineered surface made mostly of natural quartz bound with resins and pigments, designed for consistency and low maintenance. Expect white hues with a consistent, even appearance across the surface.
Look and Character
Because Calacatta Venato is manufactured, its color and pattern stay consistent across slabs, a big advantage for larger projects and matching pieces.
Best Uses
Use Calacatta Venato quartz for busy kitchens, islands, bathroom vanities, backsplashes and commercial spaces. For a balanced design, combine it with white, gray, navy or natural wood cabinetry.
Care and Maintenance
Quartz is non-porous, so it never needs sealing and resists everyday stains. Clean with mild soap and water and always use trivets for hot pans, since quartz is more sensitive to direct heat than natural stone. It is recommended for indoor use.
