Yellow Onyx
Brighter and more luminous than its honey-toned cousin, Yellow Onyx brings a sunlit, golden-amber glow to any space it graces. Its semi-translucent body, banded with warm yellow and cream, comes alive under backlighting — a feature panel in Yellow Onyx reads like captured sunshine. It is a stone for statement-making interiors, where a single radiant surface can define a whole room.
It is ideal for backlit feature walls and partitions, reception and bar fronts, vanity tops, tabletops, decorative objects, and bespoke cut-to-size work.
Also known as: Seben Yellow Onyx · Onice Giallo · Golden Onyx · Turkish Yellow Onyx
About Yellow Onyx
A banded calcite formed by mineral-rich water in underground cavities, Yellow Onyx owes its warm hue to iron and other trace minerals. Like all onyx, its great gift is translucency, and its best use is as a backlit decorative panel. It is comparatively soft and porous, so it is best kept to low-traffic, interior, decorative applications, with slabs resin-reinforced and backed for strength. Specified and lit thoughtfully, it is genuinely breathtaking.
It pairs dramatically with dark marbles and brass or bronze detailing, which we can quote alongside it.
