Onyx Honey al contro - yellow onyx of natural origin

Technical characteristics of Onyx Miele al contro

Geologically it is a sedimentary rock of chemical origin (calcareous/alabaster onyx) with a predominantly carbonate matrix and a microcrystalline structure. Its strong ability to pass light is accompanied by the typical properties of calcitic materials: it is extremely sensitive to food and chemical acids (such as lemon, vinegar, wine and anti-limescale cleaners) and is subject to scratches and wear from trampling. To ensure its durability and brilliance over time, it requires hydro-oil-repellent protective treatments and a use mainly oriented towards vertical decorative and cladding elements.

Applications in design

– backlit walls and structures: the application of choice: perfect for scenic accent walls, reception desks, bar tops, illuminated niches and back-to-back rooms or SPAs.

– “bookmatch” compositions: the mirrored pose of the cross cut creates fascinating organic geometries and natural flowery paintings of great visual impact.

– custom furniture and design elements: used for the creation of smoking tables, scenic consoles, fireplace surrounds and exclusive furnishing accessories.

– elite bathroom and wellness rooms: ideal for vertical state-of-the-art upholstery, shower walls and decorative vanity tops (with appropriate sealing and appropriate maintenance).
