White Onyx
Onyx is the jewel of the natural-stone world, and White Onyx is its purest expression. Luminous, semi-translucent, and crossed by soft crystalline veining, it does something no marble can: when backlit, it glows from within, turning a wall, bar front, or reception desk into a softly radiant feature. It is a stone for moments of drama — used sparingly and lit well, nothing else compares.
It is ideal for backlit feature walls and panels, reception desks, bar fronts, vanity tops, tabletops, and bespoke decorative cut-to-size work.
Also known as: Bianco Onyx · Onice Bianco · Turkish White Onyx · Snow Onyx
About White Onyx
Formed in layers within underground cavities from mineral-rich water, onyx is prized above all for its translucency — which is why it is most often specified as a backlit panel rather than a structural surface. As a comparatively soft and porous stone, it is best reserved for low-traffic and decorative applications, ideally interior, and benefits from resin reinforcement and backing for slabs. Handled with this in mind, the results are simply spectacular.
For a layered scheme, it works beautifully against darker stones and metals, which we can quote alongside it.
