The 3D scene is generated in real time from an actual photograph of the slab and is intended as a guide. In natural stone the veining, tone and texture differ on every slab; the final choice should be made on a physical sample or slab approval.
Colour range sampled from the slab
Pink Onyx is a natural stone — an onyx in pink tones. Its particular structure, with naturally crystallised air bubbles inside it, gives it an unusual appearance and texture, which is why it is favoured by so many designers and architects.
Pink Onyx is generally used on smaller surfaces such as ornamental pieces, decorative objects and furniture, though it works on larger surfaces too — kitchen or bathroom worktops, wall panels, basins and much more. Its striking colour and texture raise the energy of an interior and give it a warm air.
Care note
Onyx is a soft, porous stone. It should be impregnated once a year, and cleaners containing acid or alcohol avoided. In backlit applications the back face must be protected from moisture.
