A lot of people like the Quartz Countertop designs that look like Marble because you can get the Marble “look”, but with all the benefits of  Quartz Countertops.

1. Statuario Maximus Quartz

Part of Caesarstone’s Supernatural Collection, Statuario Maximus is described as: “Classic elegance of a feathered dove-white base, contrasted by broad light-grey veins in a clouded swirl that is absorbed deep into the surface, like mist.

 

2. Calacatta Nuvo Quartz

Another gorgeous design from the Supernatural Collection, Calacatta Nuvo is: “A symphony of opulence, with soft cascading grey streaks that mystify a creamy-white base.” 

Calacatta Nuvo Quartz is a great Marble alternative, with soft marble veining.

 

3. White Attica Quartz

Caesarstone describes White Attica Quartz, part of their Supernatural Collection, as “an alluring combination that overflows with the rush of grey and black inky tones, ebbing across a flawless white base.”

This design is nice because you can get the overall aesthetic look of Marble, but with a brighter white base for a truly gorgeous look when the light hits the surface.

 

4. Empira White Quartz

Caesarstone describes Empira White Quartz as “A timeless white base of the purest hue, touched by the movement of soft shadows in an interplay of darkness and light.” 

Empira White captures the classic look of Marble, with a more continuous and consistent feel throughout the design that you can rely on. 

 

5. Arabetto Quartz

Part of the Supernatural Collection, Caesarstone describes Arabetto Quartz as “A swirling galaxy of dynamic grey stripes and speckles that span across a crisp white surface, capturing a complex composition of minerals in a delicate interlacing of jade and copper that thread through this impressive stone”

Arabetto Quartz is a really nice marbled design.  We love Caesarstone Arabetto because of its natural-looking, subtle design, while also packing a punch in the design department.
