-Statuario Vene Grigie-
Description & Features
Like every colour in its series, Statuario Vene Grigie is produced in the Far East on production lines other than Breton technology, with slabs shaped one by one by hand – a method that helps the pattern resemble natural marble. The name means grey veins in Italian and describes the slab exactly: broad, semi-translucent grey veins rise across a white background and split into forks like branches, while around them spreads a dense web of fine dark grey lines that, in one zone of the slab, tightens into small polygons. The contrast between the soft broad veins and the crisp hairlines gives a realistic Statuario character. The quartz grains, bound with resin, form a compact, non-porous body that requires no sealing; as the product comes with no published measurements, the general data for engineered quartz are used as a reference (about 7 Mohs, density in the order of 2.3–2.5 g/cm³). It is offered in a polished version, while dimensions and thickness are confirmed separately for each project. The large veins show best on islands, kitchen and bathroom countertops and wall cladding, especially when cutting is planned so that the branches continue from piece to piece. Everyday care is simple – a wet, well-wrung cloth and a neutral liquid – while hot cookware and strong chemicals should be avoided.
Why choose Statuario Vene Grigie
- Broad grey veins that branch like tree limbs
- Fine web of dark lines for realistic depth
- Slabs made one by one by hand
- Compact, non-porous body – no sealing
Technical Specifications
| Material | Engineered quartz composite – quartz grains bound with resin, slabs produced one at a time (not Breton technology) |
| Color & Pattern | White background with broad, soft grey branching veins and a dense web of fine dark grey lines |
| Hardness (Mohs) | ≈7 (typical for quartz surfaces) |
| Density (g/cm³) | ≈2.3–2.5 (typical range for quartz surfaces – not stated for this product) |
| Water Absorption (%) | Very low (typically < 0.1% for quartz surfaces – no value stated for this product) |
| Frost Resistance | For interior use – no freeze–thaw data are given for this product, and the resin binder of quartz surfaces is not suited to permanent sun exposure (UV can change the colour) |
| Acid Sensitivity | High stain resistance thanks to the non-porous surface; no chemical-resistance class is given, so strong acids, alkalis and solvents should be avoided |
| Recommended Finishes | Polished |

Export & project supply
SKARIS MARBLE supplies Statuario Vene Grigie to stone importers, fabricators, architects and hotel projects outside Greece. From our facility in Thessaloniki we handle the whole order in-house:
- Slab selection and matching – we grade and match the slabs for colour and veining, so a large order stays uniform across the whole project.
- Cut-to-size and finishing – pieces cut, edged and finished to your drawings, numbered per room or elevation and ready to install.
- Mixed shipments – Greek marbles, granites, porous limestone (porolithos) and quartz surfaces can be combined in one order.
- Export packing – crated and labelled for sea or road freight, ex-works Thessaloniki; delivered terms quoted on request.
Send us your drawings or quantities and we will come back with a quotation and availability.
