Onyx Yellow Light - yellow onyx of natural origin

Technical characteristics of the Onyx Yellow Light

Geologically it is a sedimentary rock of chemical origin (calcareous onyx/alabaster) with a predominantly carbonate matrix. Its crystalline composition gives it a high translucent capacity, but also determines its marked chemical-physical delicacy: it is highly sensitive to food and chemical acids (such as lemon, vinegar, wine and anti-limescale detergents) and is prone to surface scratches. It requires a protective hydro-oil-repellent seal of the highest quality and meticulous maintenance, preferring installations with cladding or for predominantly decorative use.

Applications in design

– backlit walls and structures: the flagship application for this material: exceptional for diffuse accent walls, reception desks, bar tops, scenic niches and atmospheric wings in residential or hotel settings.

– “bookmatch” compositions: the mirrored pose enhances the brightness of the background and the fluidity of the light veins, creating natural paintings of great refinement.

– custom-made furnishing elements: used for the creation of scenic tables, consoles, fireplace surrounds, countertops and high-quality furnishing accessories.

– elite bathroom and wellness rooms: perfect for vertical reception upholstery, shower back boxes and vanity tops for mainly decorative use (with appropriate protection and specific maintenance).
