The Stone

See the natural beauty of Arabescato Statuario up close — the surface texture, colour depth, and veining that make this porcelain unique.

A refined white marble-effect porcelain with delicate grey veining in soft, flowing diagonal formations — timeless Statuario elegance.

Arabescato Statuario offers the sophisticated beauty of classic Italian marble in an exceptionally practical porcelain format. The clean white base is gently animated by fine to medium-weight grey veining that creates flowing diagonal sweeps across the surface. Grey tones range from pale silver to medium grey, and the pattern strikes a refined balance between veined areas and open white space. An ideal choice for kitchen worktops, bathroom surfaces, and splashbacks where understated elegance is the goal.

Frequently Asked

Questions About Arabescato Statuario

How does Arabescato Statuario differ from the standard Calacatta in the range?
Arabescato Statuario features more refined, flowing diagonal veining with a slightly wider grey tonal range — from silver to medium grey — creating a more nuanced, sophisticated pattern. The standard Calacatta has bolder, more evenly distributed veining. If you prefer subtlety and refinement over statement impact, Arabescato Statuario is the stronger choice.
Is Arabescato Statuario porcelain suitable for a wet room or shower enclosure?
Yes — porcelain has virtually zero water absorption (typically below 0.1%), making it ideal for wet rooms, shower walls, and bathroom surrounds. Arabescato Statuario's elegant white marble character looks stunning as floor-to-ceiling shower cladding, and it won't stain, discolour, or harbour bacteria in humid environments.
What grout colour works best with Arabescato Statuario on a splashback?
For the most seamless look, use a white or very pale grey grout that blends with the white base. If you're using large-format porcelain slabs (which Cullifords Ceramic specialises in), you may not need grout joints at all — a single slab splashback creates a continuous marble surface with no interruptions.
Can I match Arabescato Statuario worktops with a different marble-effect on the splashback?
Mixing marble-effects can work beautifully if you keep the colour palette consistent. Pairing Arabescato Statuario worktops with a subtler marble like Michelangelo Altissimo on the splashback creates a layered look without competing patterns. Avoid combining two heavily veined surfaces — let one be the feature and the other a quieter complement.
How does porcelain compare to real Statuario marble for kitchen use?
Natural Statuario marble is porous, acid-sensitive, and requires regular sealing — lemon juice, wine, and vinegar can etch and stain the surface permanently. Porcelain offers the same visual beauty with complete resistance to staining, scratching, heat, and UV. It never needs sealing, and costs significantly less than genuine Statuario.
★★★★★
"Excellent Service and Beautiful Results - Highly Recommended! I recently had In2stone install new quartz worktops in my kitchen, and I couldn't be happier with the results. From start to finish, the experience was completely stress-free. The team was not only competitively priced but also incredibly friendly and professional throughout the entire process. They handled everything seamlessly - removing the existing sink, hob, and old laminate worktops before fitting the new quartz surfaces. The finished worktops are absolutely beautiful and have transformed my kitchen into a modern, minimalist space that I love spending time in. The quality of workmanship is outstanding, and the attention to detail really shows. I'm a very satisfied customer and would highly recommend In2stone to anyone considering new worktops. Well done to the entire team - you've exceeded my expectations!"
