Optimum Surfaces Calacatta Venere is a porcelain surface in a light Calacatta look with a white ground and grey-gold veining. It is suitable for kitchens, bathrooms, wall surfaces and low-joint interior and exterior projects.
Calacatta Venere aims clearly at the visual language of classic Calacatta marbles: a light ground, flowing grey veins and warm golden accents. The décor appears bright, prestigious and architecturally clean. At ROSSITTIS we stock this surface for projects in which the design direction of marble is clearly set, but the use is to be easier to care for and more load-bearing than with genuine natural stone.
In material terms this is a sintered ceramic surface and thus not marble. That is precisely where the practical advantage lies: the décor quotes a well-known marble family without bringing its acid sensitivity and patina formation with it. For kitchens, bathrooms, furniture and large-area wall solutions that is often the more pragmatic decision.
In everyday use, Calacatta Venere scores with the typical strengths of modern porcelain surfaces: low porosity, high insensitivity to staining, UV resistance and a very hygienic surface. For external applications the material is in principle of interest, provided that build-up, substructure and thickness suit the use. In interiors it is strong above all where a marble-like look with reduced maintenance effort is required.
At ROSSITTIS, Optimum Surfaces Calacatta Venere is available as a large-format slab, as a kitchen worktop, splashback, vanity top, wall cladding, table top and furniture surface. The décor works particularly well in bright kitchens, in bathrooms with low-joint surfaces and in architectural concepts that combine an elegant stone look with technical clarity.
Our honest assessment: Calacatta Venere does not replace the depth of a genuine Calacatta marble. In return the surface is more robust and more predictable in everyday use. Anyone looking for the look but wanting less worry about acid, staining and care is in the right place here.

Optimum Surfaces Calacatta Venere is available in a range of finishes. The finish affects appearance, feel and the care it needs.
Soft Touch
A standard finish in the matte ceramic segment — after firing, the material is additionally brushed. It feels distinctly gentler than naturale matt, with a warm, softly tactile appearance. Easy to maintain and stain-resistant — a design-led choice for demanding visible surfaces and living concepts.
Care & fabrication
Calacatta Venere is uncomplicated to clean and care for. An impregnation is not necessary. Clean the surface with mild household cleaners or pH-neutral products and care for it without film-forming agents. You should above all avoid hard impacts on edges and unnecessarily abrasive pads on refined finishes.
