Does anyone have photos of MSI Calacatta Arno counters?

5 years ago

Thinking of putting the MSI Calacatta Arno quartz countertops in our kitchen, but having trouble visualizing it from the photos on the MSI website. Does anyone have this installed in their kitchen and mind sharing the photos?

    How much should I expect to pay per sq feet for Arno?


  • 3 years ago

    Barbaradogs..the HRG heralgi Roxy was a little hard to find.No one had it..I finally had a Tile store send me two samples...one Roxy Crackle in quartz and the other just plain Roxy frame in Quartz.Question...is your Quartz Roxy a little creamy colored?Not pure white??I also have the MSI Calacatta Arno and white cabinets and the HRG backsplash came looking a hair creamy...not ice white like my counters and cabinets.If your HRG subway tile was creamy and your cabinets and arno are white,how does it look when completely installed?I see your pics and it looks great but I am wondering if the color you received matched your cabinets and counters??

    Hi peggy tiles ate white not creamy


  • 3 years ago

    the dye lot must be off on the tile

    i know HRG subway tiles do came cream is it posible they sent you the wrong color:


  • 3 years ago

    yes maybe.I was surprised because yours looked nice and icy white in the pictures but what they sent had a touch of off white to it...

    peggy did u scroll up and see the picture of the box of tiles

  • 3 years ago

    I did see the box of tiles.I requested the same tile from the store you got them at...they said they only had 9 sq feet and never called me back.I saw Roxy frame crackle on Wayfair...I called the vendor and he sent me these two samples and said they were quartz...but they have a creamy undertone...not ice white.I will try to get some different samples becuase I LOVE the tile you have!!!

    Libby Kennedy Did you end up doing pure white on your cabinets? We are planning to do pure white cabinets and trim with alabaster walls, and Calcutta Arno counter and backsplash. We have café Matte white appliances. I’d love to see photos of yours and hear how you like it!

  • 3 years ago

    A HUGE thank you to all who posted so many helpful comments and pictures! I'd love to see any other tile backsplash pics with the MSI Arno countertop? I'm leaning towards doing a zellige (or look-alike) but it's so darn expensive that I'm scared to take the plunge without seeing what it might look like.

  • 3 years ago

    @Jacquie Patton Would you mind sharing the cabinet pulls you used on your cabinets. I absolutely love them! Thank you!

  • 3 years ago

    @jmonacko I'm also considering zellige in weathered white for my backsplash with the Arno countertop. Wondering if it will work? Did you have any luck finding photos of this duo?

    I got them at Home Depot

    @savvyla I haven’t found any yet but if I go through with it I will be sure to post some pics!

    @K S Thank you for sharing your photos of the Arno. I just met with a Contractor and he said the backsplace would have to be as thick as the countertops if I wanted to use the Arno for the backsplash, too. Was that your experience? Any inight you could offer would be much appreciated, as I really want to use it for both. THanks!

  • 3 years ago

    I did use Arno for backsplash and counter - I like it

    hi! does the msi calcatta arno look gray or golden brown? my cabinets are soft white with brown glaze-


  • 3 years ago

    Mine looks much more white than any of these pictures with clear brown veining

  • 3 years ago

    mine is a soft white with a soft bronze color and a very slight grey vein

  • 3 years ago

    I just went to the MSI showroom to view slabs. The slabs of Arno I saw had dark gold veining only with a bright white background. No other colors or variation. It was pretty. I'm on the fence. Our contractor said to look for jumbo sizes only. I wasn't expecting that and now feel somewhat limited. Arno is pretty and comes in prefab and jumbo size. Check out Vadara Quartz. I prefer their quartz colors. I also went to their showroom and I think their quartz is gorgeous.

    I purchased my arno from msi 2years ago i went with a friend this summer to msi

    and the color was very different

  • 3 years ago

    So here it is! and i love it- definitely more of a golden color than gray which is what i was going for. thank you so mich for the responses!

    anyone want to give an opinion on backsplash? hardware will be bronze.



  • 3 years ago

    Appliances are stainless- im trying to go warmer than cooler color- overall house is traditional

    thank you so much for anyones help! i really value the input.

  • 3 years ago

    I like it because it is warmer with the golden. Are the handle comfy & long enough. Love the handles & color.

  • 3 years ago

    @donna mcg - counters look great -
    Love the cabinet color and the pulls will be nice. I feel the tiny subways with the busy pattern- although the colors match well - will be too much eye drawing activity in the back splash I would choose larger tiles less color variation. Or use those little tiles as an accent if you really love it - perhaps over the stove. But the Arno is so beautiful - your eye will always be drawn to the backsplash

  • 3 years ago

    good eye! those are the handles but wrong size- they will be the arger obes 6”

    thank you for your response!
