Onyx Green Light is a refined, bright, and sought-after translucent calcareous alabaster mined in the famous mining basins of Iran and Pakistan (with variants also mined in Türkiye and Afghanistan). Celebrated in luxury interior design and scenographic architecture for its extraordinary ability to diffuse light and for the natural character of its crystalline veins, it constitutes a carbonate ornamental stone of the highest decorative value.
Visually, it is distinguished by a homogeneous and clear background matrix in tones of very light apple green, pale mint green, light jade and translucent shades of pistachio, capillarily traversed by stratifications, veins and clouds in tones of white lime, cream, ivory, honey and warm orange-rusty grooves.
Geologically it is classified as a hydrothermal calcareous alabaster/calcareous onyx (freshwater/thermal chemical precipitate consisting predominantly of recrystallized microcrystals of aragonite and spatic calcite). Being a strictly carbonate matrix material with high crystalline porosity, it is extremely sensitive to food and chemical acids (such as lemon, vinegar, wine, juices and anti-limescale detergents) and is subject to immediate opacification or acid corrosion. It has a medium-low hardness (Mohs scale 3), a certain mechanical fragility and a high susceptibility to scratches and accidental impacts. The sheets intended for interior design are systematically vacuum resinized and reinforced with fiberglass back mesh.
– backlit walls: creation of high-impact backlit walls, hotel reception desks, luxury cocktail bars, executive waiting rooms and accent walls.
– bookmatch compositions: the layered mint and cream green movement lends itself beautifully to the mirrored pose, transforming the vertical walls into true translucent natural paintings.
– designer bathroom, SPA, and vanity top rooms: widely used for elite bath room coverings, shower walls, and vanity tops for predominantly decorative/residential use (avoiding the use of acidic or abrasive substances).
– luxury furnishing elements and accessories: used for lounge table tops, consoles, integrated lighting bodies, decorative fireplaces and high-quality inlay inserts.
