The Cambria Luxury Series is the top design tier in Cambria’s quartz lineup — roughly 45 active designs as of 2026, all featuring the dramatic veining, layered tone, and large-scale movement that Cambria builds its reputation on. The Luxury Series sits above the Designer Collection and Signature Collection in both visual impact and price, and it’s not available at big-box retailers like Home Depot. After 10 years installing Cambria for kitchen-and-bath customers, I’ve watched these designs come and go — some are timeless, some date themselves quickly. This guide lists every current Luxury Series design organized by visual style (whites, grays, darks, warms, blues), explains how Cambria’s pricing tiers actually work, and tells you which Luxury designs I’d still recommend in 2026.

What Makes the Luxury Series Different

Cambria organizes its quartz designs into three main consumer tiers plus a fourth professional/architectural line. Understanding where Luxury sits matters because the price gap between tiers is real.

Cambria Designer Collection is the entry tier — cleaner, more uniform stones with subtler movement (think Whitney, Torquay’s calmer cousins). Designer pieces are what you’ll most often see at Home Depot through their Cambria program.

Cambria Signature Collection sits in the middle, with moderate veining and pattern complexity (Praa Sands, Torquay, Berkeley fall here). More visual interest than Designer; less drama than Luxury.

Cambria Luxury Series is the top consumer tier — large-scale veining, layered translucency, sometimes metallic-look effects in the Inverness sub-collection. The slabs are thicker visually, the movement reads at twenty feet, and the surface treatment options often include both Cambria’s standard high-gloss polish and the Cambria Satin matte finish.

Cambria Excellence and Cambria Pinnacle are the limited and architectural collections released most recently — rotating availability, often display-only, sometimes spec’d for commercial installations. Most homeowners won’t shop these.

The Luxury Series also gets the wider thickness options (1 cm, 2 cm, 3 cm; standard kitchen is 3 cm), every edge profile, and is eligible for Cambria’s bookmatched-slab and waterfall-edge installations that the Designer tier sometimes restricts.

Cambria Luxury Series Colors by Visual Style

Cambria’s own website lists colors alphabetically, which is fine for browsing if you already know the name. If you’re shopping for a look, it’s useless. Here is the current Luxury Series catalog organized by what the buyer is actually trying to achieve.

Whites and Creams (15+ Luxury Designs)

The largest category in the Luxury Series and the most popular for modern kitchens. Major options include Brittanicca (the bestseller — soft white background with subtle gray veining), Brittanicca Warm (warmer cream tones), Brittanicca Gold (gold veining on cream), and Brittanicca Block (eco-friendly variant with recycled content). Other heavy hitters: Ella (classic Carrara look in quartz), Skara Brae (creamy white with sparse blue-gray veining), Mayfair (warm white with pale-blue and navy splashes), White Cliff, Annicca, Clovelly, Charlestown, Inverness Frost, Inverness Platinum, and the newer releases Everleigh and Beckington.

Grays and Soft Neutrals (12+ Luxury Designs)

The second-largest category and the one that tends to age the most gracefully. Anchors here are Bentley (deep gray with white veining), Bradwell, Buxton, Clare, Hemsworth, Leabridge, Ivybridge, Notting Hill (a popular gray with subtle warm undertones), Myddleton, Marwell, Huntley, Southport, St. Giles, and Archdale. The grays photograph well for resale listings — a factor worth thinking about if you’re remodeling in part for value.

Dark and Dramatic (8 Luxury Designs)

Darker stones make a kitchen feel grounded and modern but eat light. Currently available: Blackpool Matte (deep black with subtle gray flecks, in the Cambria Satin matte finish), Portrush (charcoal with bold white veining), Ironsbridge, Delgatie (one of my favorites for islands; rich movement), Queensbury, Hawksmoore, Harrogate, and Colton. Dark Luxury designs photograph dramatically but require careful lighting planning — pendants over an island become essential.

Warm and Gold (6 Luxury Designs)

For warmer kitchen palettes — oak floors, brass hardware, terracotta tile. The standouts: Cashel (warm white with burgundy and rust veining), Brittanicca Gold, Inverness Gold (part of the metallic-effect Inverness sub-line), Inverness Bronze, Gladstone, and Malvern. The Inverness Gold and Bronze designs include subtle metallic veining that catches light differently than traditional quartz patterning — in person, they look almost backlit. They are not for everyone, but for the right kitchen, nothing else competes.

Blue, Cool, and Exotic (Specialty Designs)

The most distinctive Luxury options. Inverness Cobalt features deep blue with metallic-bronze veining — the boldest design in the current lineup, used most often on a single feature island rather than as a kitchen-wide stone. Mayfair’s pale-blue and navy notes on a warm white background put it in this category too, and Baybridge brings cool gray-blue tones. Coming soon as of mid-2026: Oakleigh, which Cambria has previewed but not yet released to dealers.

Cambria Luxury Series Pricing

Pricing is where most homeowners get surprised, because “Luxury Series” doesn’t price as a single tier — Cambria internally classifies every design into a Designer Group from approximately 1 to 5+, with Luxury Series designs concentrated in Groups 3, 4, and 5. The current per-square-foot installed range for Luxury Series in 2026 sits roughly between $90 and $200 per square foot installed, with most of the bestsellers (Brittanicca, Skara Brae, Ella) landing around $100–$135. The metallic Inverness designs and bookmatched specialty pieces run the upper end of the range. For a typical 30 square foot kitchen project, you’re looking at total Cambria Luxury installed cost between roughly $2,700 and $6,000 depending on the specific design and your local fabricator rates. The Cambria Lifetime Limited Warranty applies to all Luxury Series designs, which materially affects the long-term math against cheaper unbranded quartz. For brand-specific care once installed, follow my Cambria cleaning guide — the wrong cleaner can dull the polished finish over time.

Where to Buy Cambria Luxury Series

This is the single most important practical point and the one Cambria buries on their site: the Luxury Series is not sold through Home Depot, Lowe’s, or Costco. Home Depot’s Cambria partnership covers a limited set of Designer Collection options only. To buy any Luxury Series design, you go through a Cambria Premier Dealer — a network of independent kitchen-and-bath retailers, designers, and stone fabricators authorized to carry the full catalog. Use Cambria’s official dealer locator to find one near you, then expect to either visit the dealer’s showroom or order a free 4-inch sample directly from shop.cambriausa.com. The sample is critical: every Luxury Series design has large-scale movement that a 4-inch chip can’t fully convey, so after the sample you typically need to visit the dealer to see a full slab before fabrication.

Which Luxury Designs Age Best (My Honest Take)

After installing Cambria in customers’ homes for a decade, I’ve seen which Luxury Series designs hold up visually over five to ten years and which start to feel dated. The pattern is clear and not particularly surprising. The bestsellers age best precisely because their popularity is grounded in classic stone references that don’t go in and out of style: Brittanicca, Ella, and Skara Brae still look current ten years after installation because they reference Calacatta and traditional Carrara marble, which have been timeless for centuries. The mid-range grays (Bentley, Bradwell, Buxton) age similarly well because gray is the dominant neutral of the 2010s-2020s and has not retreated. The designs that date themselves fastest are the highly-stylized exotic ones — the dramatic metallic Inverness pieces, the bold-veined high-contrast designs — not because they’re poorly made but because they read as design statements of a specific moment. If you love them, install them; just understand that a bolder Luxury choice is a more design-forward commitment than the safer whites and grays.

Cambria Luxury Series vs. Other Premium Quartz

Cambria’s main competition at the Luxury Series price point is Caesarstone (especially the Calacatta Nuvo and Statuario Nuvo designs), Silestone (the Eternal collection — Eternal Calacatta Gold, Eternal Statuario), and MSI’s Q Premium Natural Quartz. All three offer comparable visual drama with similar warranties. Cambria’s edge is its American-made manufacturing (every slab is produced in Le Sueur, Minnesota), the Lifetime Limited Warranty, and the consistency of the Premier Dealer service network. The downside is price — Cambria Luxury usually costs $10-$30 more per square foot installed than equivalent Caesarstone or Silestone designs. For my full comparison of Cambria against other premium quartz brands and against natural stone alternatives, see my granite vs quartz guide and the quartz sealing post (Cambria, like all quartz, never needs sealing).

Frequently Asked Questions

How many designs are in the Cambria Luxury Series?

As of 2026, the Luxury Series catalog contains approximately 45 active designs across whites/creams, grays, darks, warms, and specialty blue/metallic options. Cambria adds new designs annually and retires some, so the exact count shifts. I track the most recent additions in my Cambria new colors post. Cambria’s design palette page is the source of truth for current availability.

What’s the difference between Cambria Luxury and Designer Collections?

Designer Collection is Cambria’s entry tier — cleaner, more uniform stones with subtler movement, sold through both Premier Dealers and Home Depot. Luxury Series is the top consumer tier — dramatic large-scale veining, broader finish and thickness options, and Premier Dealer exclusive (not at Home Depot). Luxury runs roughly $30–$80 per square foot more than Designer.

Why isn’t Cambria Luxury Series at Home Depot?

Cambria limits Home Depot to a curated subset of Designer Collection designs. The Signature, Luxury, and architectural collections are sold only through Cambria Premier Dealers — independent kitchen-and-bath retailers and certified stone fabricators. This protects the dealer network and ensures Luxury Series buyers get personalized fabrication consultation rather than big-box checkout.

How much does Cambria Luxury Series cost per square foot?

Installed, expect $90 to $200 per square foot in 2026. Bestsellers like Brittanicca, Ella, and Skara Brae land around $100–$135. The metallic Inverness collection and bookmatched specialty designs run the upper end. A typical 30 sq ft kitchen project comes in between $2,700 and $6,000 installed.
