carrera alternatives I have a sample of Silestone Lyra and Cambria Torquay sitting on my island. The thing about Quartz is it's very consistant as it's engineered. So while marbles and granites can vary greatly slab to slab, quartz will generally look as you choose. I much prefer the Lyra for the more dramatic 'veining' to the Torquay. It's is colder than the Torquay as are the Carrera and Calacatta marbles. We love that about it. When I was looking, those are the two that resembled the Carrera marble the most. I haven't seen any quartz that resembles the drama of the Calacatta.
