Calacatta Gold Shimmer Quartz – Nile Stone

The Calacatta Gold Shimmer quartz from Nile Stone slab features a bright white base that gives the surface a clean and open feel across large areas. Soft grey veining flows diagonally through the slab in broad, calm ribbons, supported by finer web-like lines that add gentle movement without overwhelming the design. Subtle warm gold shimmer accents appear through parts of the patterning, offering light, refined highlights that bring warmth and depth while keeping the overall look balanced and controlled for worktops and feature installations.

Design Ideas for Calacatta Gold Shimmer Quartz

Calacatta Gold Shimmer Quartz Nile Stone works particularly well in interiors where a crisp surface is needed but with enough patterning to create definition. The bright background pairs naturally with white, light grey, and warm neutral cabinetry, while the soft grey veining and gold shimmer detailing also complement brass fixtures, black hardware, and darker joinery for contrast. Used on islands, waterfall ends, or full-height splashbacks, the slab’s broader diagonal movement helps create focal points and visual flow across connected surfaces, keeping the overall look refined rather than busy.

Performance You Can Rely On

Engineered quartz construction provides a dense, low-absorption surface that supports daily kitchen and bathroom use. Calacatta Gold Shimmer Quartz Nile Stone is resistant to common household spills and surface wear when cared for correctly, helping maintain the clarity of its white base and the definition of its grey and gold detailing over time. Consistent slab calibration also supports accurate fabrication, clean joins, and precise cut-outs, allowing the finished installation to retain sharp lines while preserving the slab’s natural-looking pattern direction.

Care, Cleaning & Heat Guidance

Calacatta Gold Shimmer Quartz Nile Stone routine care involves wiping the surface with warm water and a mild, pH-neutral cleaner to keep the polished finish clear. Spills should be cleaned promptly, particularly around high-use zones such as sinks and hobs, to support long-term appearance and prevent residue build-up on the lighter background. Heat protection is recommended by using trivets beneath hot cookware, and abrasive pads or acidic cleaners should be avoided to maintain the surface sheen and preserve the slab’s crisp tone.

Sizing, Thicknesses & Detailing

Calacatta Gold Shimmer Quartz is supplied in a jumbo slab size of 3200 × 1600 mm, allowing for expansive layouts with minimal joins across large worktop runs and feature islands. Available in both 20 mm and 30 mm thickness options, it supports streamlined contemporary edges as well as more substantial profiles. Mitred detailing, waterfall ends, and full-height splashbacks can be specified to carry the grey veining and subtle gold shimmer accents naturally across planes, helping maintain strong visual continuity throughout the space.

Peace of Mind with Warranty & Installation

• ✔ 15-year Nile Stone manufacturer warranty on the quartz slab.
• ✔ Warranty applies to material integrity under normal use conditions.
• ✔ Acid damage, misuse, and impact damage are excluded.

Careful planning of pattern direction, joints, and edge profiles helps Calacatta Gold Shimmer Quartz read naturally across sinks, hobs, corners, and feature ends. Accurate slab alignment and thoughtful detailing preserve the slab’s calm diagonal movement and fine background webbing, while supporting long-term performance in everyday environments where consistency and clean finishing matter.
