Onyx Green Multicolor is one of the most dramatic, chromatically complex and exotic materials in the world, mined mainly in the renowned stone basins of Pakistan and Iran. Celebrated in high-end interior design and scenographic architecture for its unrepeatable visual dynamism and the marked translucency of its crystalline bands, it constitutes a limestone alabaster of extraordinary artistic charge.
Visually, it is distinguished by a very rich and heterogeneous background matrix in which the dominant shades of emerald green, jade green and apple green blend and contrast with bands, waves and concentric layers in tones of copper red, terracotta, rust orange, honey, amber, chocolate brown and white lime.
Geologically it is classified as a hydrothermal calcareous alabaster/calcareous onyx (freshwater/thermal chemical precipitate consisting mainly of aragonite and spatic calcite, with significant concentrations of iron oxides and hydroxides responsible for the polychrome striations). Being a strictly carbonate matrix material, it is highly 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 marked structural fragility along the stratification lines and a high susceptibility to scratches and accidental impacts.
– backlit walls and dramatic backdrops: choice of choice for spectacular backlit wall coverings, hotel reception desks, elite cocktail bars, executive lobbies and accent walls.
– bookmatch compositions: the layered, polychrome movement lends itself beautifully to mirrored poses, transforming vertical surfaces into true natural pictorial works of art.
– luxury bathroom and SPA rooms: widely used for designer bathroom upholstery, dramatic shower walls and vanity tops for decorative/residential use (avoiding the use of acidic or abrasive substances).
– furnishing elements and designer accessories: used for smoking or dining table tops, entrance consoles, ornamental fireplaces, lighting fixtures and custom decorative inlays.
