Has anyone seen Statuario Nuvo caesarstone?

Does it look natural? Thinking about using it for countertop and backsplash in my kitchen. There isn't much on the web about this specific product.

    Saw the large slab today, I think it's beautiful. Quite natural veins I think. Is not as white as I thought it would be, has brownish veins, not grey. Perfect with any timber accents I think. I'll be using it as you said, for bench tops and splashback. Just trying to match a 'white' for my cabinets.

    Going to look at it on Saturday for backsplash/cladding kitchen walls and countertops. Did you get it? Do you like it?

    Hi there, we're happy to hear you're interested in Statuario Nuvo. It's a gorgeous new color that reflects the veining you find in Marble. It's beautiful! Samples are now available and you can order one here.

    We also just released a collection of new colors similar to Statuario Nuvo. Take a look and let us know what you think!

    Best of luck with your renovations!

    Hi, did you go with Statuario Nuvo? I'm having a difficult time finding a backsplash to coordinate with it, but it sure is pretty.

    thanks in advance

    I just selected it for my remodel, I can't wait to see it in a few weeks.

    I didn't end up picking it. It was pretty - but the veining was quite sparse. I ended up going with calacatta from Neolith- and it came out spectacular!

    I've seen it at the showroom and looks beautiful. I would love to see it in a kitchen. Jane and Kevin-, what colors did you choose for your cabinets to go with it?!

    would love to see pics!

    thanks!!

    Has anyone put this in a bathroom?! Would it not work well for a small surface area?

    Hi every one.

    The main advantages that Neolith provides, compared with natural stone, granite or quartz are:

    HYGIENIC - It does not give off any harmful substances and is totally suitable for contact with food. NSF Certifate.

    RESISTANT TO BENDING - It has a high shear rate, making it resistant to heavy loads and pressure.

    RESISTANT TO SCRATCHES - Its hard surface makes it resistant to scratches and abrasion.

    EASY TO CLEAN - Resistant to any kind of chemical cleaning agent such as bleach or ammonia.

    RESISTANT TO UV RAYS - Being 100% natural, its colors do not fade away when being exposed to sun light or other extreme weather conditions.

    RESISTANT TO HIGHT TEMPERATURES - It does not burn in contact with fire nor does it emit smoke or toxic substances when subjected to high temperatures.

    100% NATURAL - It does not give off any substances that are harmful to the environment.

    RESISTANT TO ICE AND THAW - Neolith does not suffer any changes when exposed to low temperatures.

    WATERPROOF - Waterproof and resistant to liquids, with an absorption level of almost zero.

    100% RECYCLABLE - Up to 52% of any Neolith slab is composed of recycled raw materials.

    For furniture and interior cladding, using 3 mm is recommended; for flooring (interior and exterior) and exterior applications (like ventilated façades), 6 mm is recommended; whereas 12 and 20 mm is reserved for more demanding product uses such as for kitchen worktops.

    J.C. what color did you paint your cabinets?


  • 9 years ago

    Hey ladies I went with the Nuvo and I couldn't be happier it is EXACTLY right not so bold as the calcutta or the maximus but I wanted understated beauty something that would never go out of fashion. The Nuvo came out a lot whiter than the sample, but exactly the same as the showroom so I would recommend picking your cabinet colour at the showroom. We ended up going with Dulux Pebble Grey quarter for our cabinets it goes very well, although you could go with something a little more creamier to get it more exact. I renovated from yellow/beige base to white/grey base so wanted the cabinets a little crisper. Ill post photos tomorrow.

    Hi sarahdjennings, the cabinets are Kitchen Craft Sea Shell, closely resembles Benjamin Moore Gray Mist

  • 9 years ago

    I made a mistake with mirror splashback does anyone have an offcuts of their slabs left I could purchase (without buying an entire slab) I literally only need either

    1 piece

    155mm x 2860mm

    or

    2 pieces

    155 x 1380

    or

    3 pieces

    155 x 700

    155 x 1860

    155 x 300


    Desperate to get rid of the mirror and put the same stone as my benchtop as my splashback

    What color cabinets and backsplash subway tile would match the statuario nuvo countertop?

  • 9 years ago

    Light gray cabinets look awesome with the Nuvo.

    what about BM White Dove with Statuario Nuvo?


  • 9 years ago

    White Dove is pretty creamy/yellow... do you have a sample where you can compare the paint chip and quartz?

  • 9 years ago

    J.C. Thanks so much for posting photos. It is so helpful because as you said there are not very many photos out there. Your kitchen is beautiful! I've been trying to select a countertop and deciding among White Attica, Statuario Nuvo and Maximumus (I think - get the names confused!). I was also wondering whether it would work with Ben Moore White Dove which is my go-to color for just about everything, but it seems like it won't work because of the yellow undertones (which I don't see in my current kitchen painted White Dove but I do see on my house exterior, also White Dove!). Will check grey mist -- while I love grey cabinets I'm a bit concerned that it might feel dark in my house, but yours is light, bright and airy!

    @florava we did frosty carrina and it's amazing.

  • 9 years ago

    That looks beautiful too, Sarah. Do you have pics of your kitchen? What color did you paint cabs? I'm adding it to my list!


  • 9 years ago

    I do, will post tonight! I was looking at the same counters - I really loved the Nuvo most, but opted to go with the frosty based on the layout of our kitchen and consistency of the veining. I'm so glad I did - the frosty has a lot more character than appears in photos. It's not a bright white either, so I think it would go with White Dove. Our cabinets are a really light gray, similar to Benjamin Moore Light Pewter.

    Hi all, glad the pictures were helpful :), Thanks @florava for the kind words. I know I scoured the internet looking for real life settings of Statuario Nuvo....I have to say my only complaint with these countertops as time has passed, is that we are tea drinkers and you have to be ever so careful not to get a tea stain on them as these are not as stain resistant as advertised. Tea and maybe coffee seem to be the worst offenders, and don't get a metal organic waste container as they leave a ring if you're not careful. If I had to do it all again I would maybe think about something that blends in with tea . I was really drawn to this particular countertop and just had to have it and I do enjoy the look. My parents have Cambria I believe and there's is a much shinier finish which looks more stain resistant to me. Anyway, good luck I know it is a tough decision and takes a lot of thought.

    Good to know. We are big tea and coffee drinkers too. Something to think about!

  • 8 years ago

    I will consider any products that are durable and look nice. Is there a neolith that looks like statuorio nuvo or frosty carina or any of the other products mentioned here? Thanks.

  • 8 years ago

    Do lots of research and don't believe the manufacturers, look up whatever company you are interested in and search how to remove stains or repair chips, from it and you will see all of the users complaints or none. Caesarstone has lots of staining complaints it seems.

    Beautiful JC the counter and backsplash is gorgeous

    I’m trying to figure out a white cabinet paint color to go with my Caeserstone Statuario Nuvo counter tops. What have people used?
  • 5 years ago

    This is an old thread but I am trying anyway. Our cabinets are SW Pure white and we are going with a handmade tile backsplash. I really want to use the Statuario Nuvo for our countertop, but all the samples I have are so small. I am scared it won't look right with how white the backsplash and cabinets are. Having said that, I don't want a super white countertop..I think the warmer color of the SN warms it up. The Statuario Nuvo also goes well with our floor tile (which has a pattern). Any advice on how the SN looks with a white subway tile and cabinet color......or will it look like I made a mistake?

    This is statuario Maximus with white cabinets

    What backsplash did you use with this Caesar stone color?
