Quartz is a beautiful alternative to other natural stone options like marble and granite, especially considering that it can be made to look like other types of stone, while delivering an incredible array of benefits. You’ll not only love the look of engineered quartz countertops, but also the fact that they’re durable, resilient, non-porous, anti-microbial, and resistant to staining. Plus, quartz is easy to clean and maintain.
It’s hard to find a reason not to like quartz, and when you see the wide selection of colors available from trusted brands like Caesarstone, Silestone, MSI, and more, you’ll be especially glad you chose this versatile material for a kitchen, bathroom, laundry room, or other countertop surfaces in your home. Of course, you might be interested to know which colors are the most enduringly popular.
Whether you’re looking for options that will work with any décor or you’re designing to appeal to prospective buyers, it’s wise to consider the options that will deliver lasting use value and produce the best return on investment.
So, what are the all-time most popular quartz countertop colors? Here are a few to consider.
Quartz Option #1: Caesarstone
One of the best-known suppliers of quartz countertops, Caesarstone, offers a stunning selection of colors that are made to look like other stone types, but they really shine when it comes to options that have the unique appearance of quartz. Narrowing it down to just a few of the most popular is no easy feat, but there are a handful sure to work in any home.
Caesarstone Option: Frosty Carrina
You really can’t go wrong with a pristine, all-white kitchen, especially if you use a tone-on-tone approach for added depth and visual interest. Slightly off-white Frosty Carrina is a great alternative to pure white options as it will stand out slightly from bright white cabinets and pair beautifully with light or warm wood tones. It’s also stunning when contrasted against darker, richer wood.
Caesarstone Option: Alpine Mist
A soft, pale gray background whisked with white veins makes a stunning addition to any modern kitchen space, thanks to icy tones that pair well with trendy whites and grays.
Caesarstone Option: Dreamy Marfil
Caesarstone offers a range of natural stone looks, but Dreamy Marfil (a take on Crema Marfil marble) is among the most attractive, thanks to a warm, creamy beige background punctuated by subtle, delicate tan and brown veining. This not only makes it a perfect complement to wood cabinetry, but a great choice for anyone looking to warm up interior spaces.
Caesarstone Option: Raw Concrete
Mid-tone gray pairs with just about anything, from white or black cabinets, to an array of colors. Raw Concrete is particularly versatile because it leans a little warm, which means it also goes well with rich or rustic wood, where a cool gray might not.
Caesarstone Option: Piatra Grey
If you want to imbue your kitchen or bathroom with a bit of drama, consider Piatra Grey in soft, charcoal black with the slightest hint of white veining. It pairs beautifully with dark wood or offers high-contrast appeal against white cabinetry.
Quartz Option #2: Silestone
Silestone is another great option for countertops in your home, and they offer a collection of versatile neutrals and natural stone look-alikes, ranging from light to dark, that are sure to suit any home interior and design style.
Silestone Option: Blanco Zeus
Like the epic white beard of the king of the gods, this frosty white marble is truly spectacular. If you have your heart set on extreme white countertops, this surface will stand out brilliantly against wood tones or darker cabinetry, and match seamlessly with white cabinets.
Silestone Option: Marengo
In the right setting, a rich, dark countertop surface can add a dose of dimension to your space. Marengo is a great choice if you want to walk that fine line between chocolate and charcoal without veering into inky-black territory.
Silestone Option: Et Marquina
Contrast creates visual drama, and Et Marquina delivers in spades. If you’re looking for a real show-stopper to act as the focal point of your kitchen or bathroom space, you can’t go wrong with bold, white streaks splashed like lighting across the black background of this spectacular quartz surface.
Quartz Option #2: MSI
MSI Option: Calacatta Classique
If you’re looking for quartz to stand in for marble or granite, MSI goes above and beyond, with literally dozens of options for Calacatta, Carrara, and other popular patterns. One of the most popular marble look-alikes is Calacatta Classique, with the cool, white background and soft, gray marbling the original stone is known for.
MSI Option: Pacific Salt
Those seeking the depth and patterning of granite are sure to like Pacific Salt, which is similar to Alaska White granite, featuring a creamy background punctuated by swirls of brown and black. That said, you can still find the unique appeal of quartz with a bright, uniform Arctic White or the eye-catching appeal of Sparkling White or Sparkling Black, for example.
With so many gorgeous and versatile options in quartz, you can definitely find the perfect look for your home and your personal style, but knowing which options are the most popular can help to ensure the greatest overall value with this important home improvement.
