White marble-look quartz with bold veining
Calacatta Themis, part of the Suma series, places black and gray veining on an off-white background. The veins travel in broad diagonal bands with a textured, bubbled edge, giving the slab a strong direction that shows best on long islands, waterfall ends and full-height backsplashes. Plan the layout with the fabricator so the bands flow across seams. It suits black, charcoal or white cabinetry and matte black or polished nickel hardware. Calacatta Themis is polished and sold in 2 cm and 3 cm.

Calacatta Themis is for islands, waterfall ends and full-height backsplashes where its broad black-and-gray bands can be seen in one piece. The strong diagonal direction makes layout important: seams need planning so the bands continue rather than stop. It is less suited to a small L-shaped kitchen with many breaks, where the bold banding can look chopped up.
Calacatta Themis has darker, blacker banding than Calacatta West, whose broad veins are soft gray with lighter edges. Bianco Calacatta is also high contrast, but its thick veins are gray rather than black and sit on a grayer white.

Bold. Black and gray veins travel in broad diagonal bands with a textured, bubbled edge across an off-white background. It is designed to be seen, so it works best where the pattern has room, such as an island or a slab backsplash.
Black, charcoal and white cabinets all suit its monochrome veining. For a two-tone kitchen, dark lowers and white uppers repeat the counter's contrast. Wood can work, but choose a cool-toned species so it does not clash with the gray.
Ask the fabricator to lay out your templates on photos of the actual slabs before cutting so the diagonal bands flow across each seam. Placing seams where the veining is lightest also helps them blend, and mitered waterfall edges need the same care.
