Browse Forums Building A New House 1 Apr 30, 2020 8:25 pm Hi! I am considering putting Caeserstone's oyster 4030 stone in our kitchen. I've found it really difficult to find consistent images of this. Some show a very dark grey, others light etc. The CS display centre is closed at the moment so cant go to see it either. If anyone has this installed - would love to see it. Thank you!! Re: Caesertstone Oyster Stone 2May 01, 2020 10:42 pm Hi Cooky, Our bench tops went in today and are Oyster. I haven’t been able to get proper photos as it was dark when I went around this evening but will be going this weekend so can take some photos for you, however these will be from the outside of the house. I’m unsure if this is useful for you but it might give you a rough idea Re: Caesertstone Oyster Stone 3May 02, 2020 7:44 pm NathanPS Hi Cooky, Our bench tops went in today and are Oyster.

I’m unsure if this is useful for you but it might give you a rough idea Hi Nathan, That would be fantastic! I really like it, but cannot for the life of me find accurate images of it installed. I would so very much appreciate it! Re: Caesertstone Oyster Stone 4May 03, 2020 4:05 pm Hi mate, Please see photos below. Note: these are taken on the outside. It seems a lot darker than we were anticipating based on the sample, but it could just be because we aren’t looking at it close up. I also do not like how they have sealed our waterfall ends and front cabinetry with white sikaflex, should be grey but will be discussing this later. I hope these photos help. I will try and get you some more photos when we are able to get inside next.

Looks like lighting will affect the shading of the grey. I'm completely ok with a darker stone look in my bathrooms, but not sure about the kitchen. It looks lighter and just right in your pictures, though I agree about the seal. Would look much nicer as grey! Re: Caesertstone Oyster Stone 6May 04, 2020 11:56 am No problem mate. Yes the lighting does affect it. To give you an idea, I went the evening it was installed to have a look and it looked extremely dark (I was actually really concerned about it) however when I went the next morning it wasn’t too bad at all. Is it what we expected - probably not. We still think it’s quite a bit darker than what the sample portrayed. However, as I stated, we have yet to see it without looking through the windows on the outside so once we are able to do so, it could change our opinion. If you don’t need to decide ASAP, we are anticipating to have a proper look from the inside within the next two - two and a half weeks. I’ll try and get you some proper photos then if you’re interested Re: Caesertstone Oyster Stone 8May 07, 2020 10:45 pm Thanks again! Really appreciate it.
