If you’re searching for countertops that deliver stunning marble-look aesthetics without the maintenance headaches of natural stone, Vicostone deserves a spot on your shortlist. As one of the world’s largest quartz manufacturers, Vicostone has built a reputation for beautiful designs, dependable quality, and pricing that won’t break your renovation budget.
At All American Granite, we’ve installed Vicostone countertops in kitchens and bathrooms throughout the Twin Cities for years. In this guide, I’ll share what you need to know to decide if Vicostone is the right choice for your home—from popular colors and realistic pricing to warranty details and how it stacks up against other premium quartz brands.
What Makes Vicostone a Quality Choice?
Vicostone creates its quartz surfaces using the same Italian manufacturing technology trusted by premium brands like Caesarstone and Silestone. Each slab contains approximately 90% natural quartz, one of the hardest minerals on earth, combined with resins and pigments to create a surface that’s both beautiful and incredibly durable.
What does this mean for your kitchen or bathroom? You get countertops that resist scratches from everyday use, won’t absorb stains from coffee or wine spills, and never need sealing. The non-porous surface also means bacteria and mold can’t penetrate, a real advantage in busy family kitchens.
Vicostone holds certifications that matter for your home: NSF certification confirms it’s safe for food preparation, while GreenGuard Gold certification means it meets strict standards for indoor air quality. If anyone in your household has sensitivities to chemicals or you simply want peace of mind about what’s in your home, these certifications provide reassurance.
Where Is Vicostone Made?
Vicostone manufactures all its quartz surfaces in Vietnam, where the company was founded in 2002. What started as a single factory has grown into one of the world’s top three quartz producers, now exporting to over 50 countries. Their products are distributed throughout North America from warehouses across the U.S. and Canada, which means the colors you see in our showroom are typically available without long wait times.
Available Thicknesses and Sizes
Vicostone offers two standard thicknesses to suit different applications:
3 cm (1¼ inch) is the most popular choice for kitchen countertops. This substantial thickness creates a luxurious, high-end appearance and provides excellent durability for your busiest work surfaces.
2 cm (¾ inch) works beautifully for bathroom vanities, backsplashes, and accent pieces where a slightly slimmer profile is preferred or where the countertop will be supported by cabinetry throughout.
Standard slabs measure approximately 119 by 56 inches—large enough for most kitchen islands and L-shaped countertops with minimal seams. For extra-large projects, jumbo slabs are available in select colors.
How Much Does Vicostone Cost?
Vicostone typically falls in the mid-to-premium price range, offering excellent value compared to other high-quality quartz brands. For fully installed countertops, expect to invest between $55 and $100 per square foot, depending on the color you choose and your project’s complexity.
Several factors influence your final price: simpler solid colors and subtle patterns cost less than dramatic marble-look designs with bold veining. Your choice of edge profile matters too, a basic eased edge is included in most quotes, while decorative ogee or waterfall edges add to the investment. And of course, projects requiring more cutouts for sinks, cooktops, or unique shapes will reflect additional fabrication work.
The good news? Vicostone generally costs 15-25% less than comparable European brands like Caesarstone and Silestone while delivering similar quality and design options.
Popular Vicostone Colors
With over 130 colors in their collection, Vicostone offers options ranging from classic whites to bold statement pieces. Here are some favorites we see Twin Cities homeowners choosing again and again:
Caldia™
Inspired by coveted Calacatta marble, Caldia features a crisp white background with soft gray veining accented by delicate golden threads. This color brings warmth and sophistication to kitchens seeking that timeless marble aesthetic. It’s particularly stunning on large islands where the veining pattern can flow uninterrupted.
Statuario™
One of Vicostone’s signature designs, Statuario captures the essence of Italian Statuario marble with flowing gray veins crossing a pure white canvas. The movement feels natural and organic—not too busy, not too plain. This versatile choice complements everything from traditional cabinetry to sleek modern kitchens.
Venatino™
For homeowners drawn to more dramatic veining, Venatino delivers with bold gray patterns that sweep across a creamy white background. The effect resembles tree branches dancing in the wind—artistic and contemporary. This makes a beautiful statement in bathrooms and powder rooms where you want the countertop to be a focal point.
Elysian®
Elysian moves away from stark whites into warmer territory, blending soft white and gray tones that evoke gathering storm clouds. This is an excellent choice for kitchens with warm wood tones or where pure white might feel too stark. The gentle movement creates visual interest without overwhelming the space.
Azur De Mar®
Ready to make a statement? Azur De Mar brings deep ocean blues with stormy gray undertones into your design. This bold choice works beautifully in contemporary spaces, home bars, or as a stunning contrast to white cabinetry. If you want your countertops to start conversations, this is the color to consider.
Moonglade™
One of Vicostone’s newer introductions, Moonglade offers something unique—a warm brown and gray background with delicate white and gray veining that ripples across the surface like moonlight on water. This versatile neutral pairs beautifully with both cool and warm cabinet colors.
The Vicostone Warranty
Vicostone backs their residential installations with a 15-year limited warranty covering manufacturing defects. Here’s what you should know:
Registration is required. You’ll need to register your warranty within 30 days of installation through your fabricator or directly with Vicostone. Don’t skip this step—unregistered installations aren’t covered.
Coverage has limits. The warranty covers the cost of replacement slabs if a manufacturing defect appears. However, it doesn’t cover fabrication, transportation, or reinstallation costs. It also doesn’t cover damage from heat (always use trivets!), chemicals, physical abuse, or normal wear.
Indoor use only. Vicostone is designed for interior applications. Outdoor installations void the warranty, as UV exposure can affect the surface over time.
While Vicostone’s warranty is solid, it’s worth noting that some competitors like Cambria offer lifetime coverage. For most homeowners, 15 years provides plenty of protection—quartz surfaces rarely fail due to manufacturing defects, and proper care keeps them looking beautiful for decades.
How Vicostone Compares to Other Brands
When shopping for quartz countertops, you’ll likely encounter several well-known brands. Here’s how Vicostone measures up:
Caesarstone
Caesarstone pioneered the quartz countertop industry and remains a design leader. Their colors tend toward clean, contemporary aesthetics. Expect to pay $70-$120 per square foot installed—somewhat higher than Vicostone for comparable quality.
Silestone
Silestone offers unique textures beyond polished finishes, including their popular suede and volcano options. They also incorporate antimicrobial technology. Installed pricing typically runs $75-$125 per square foot, positioning Silestone as a premium choice.
Cambria
As the only quartz brand manufactured entirely in the USA, Cambria commands premium pricing ($80-$150 installed) but offers a lifetime warranty and stunning design depth. If American-made products are a priority and budget allows, Cambria is worth considering.
MSI Q Quartz
MSI Q Quartz provides the most budget-friendly option among major brands, with installed pricing from $55-$90 per square foot. While the design selection is more limited than Vicostone, MSI offers solid quality for value-conscious projects.
Caring for Your Vicostone Countertops
One of quartz’s biggest advantages is how little maintenance it requires. For daily cleaning, simply wipe down your Vicostone countertops with a soft cloth, warm water, and mild dish soap. That’s really all it takes to keep them looking their best.
A few simple habits will protect your investment for years to come: always use trivets or hot pads under heated cookware (quartz can handle normal kitchen heat but sudden temperature changes may cause damage), wipe up spills reasonably promptly, and avoid harsh chemicals like oven cleaners or paint strippers. Unlike granite, quartz never needs sealing—the non-porous surface takes care of itself.
