Natural Pink Onyx Slab | The Gem of Interior Design
نظرة عامة على المنتج
أونيكس وردي is one of the most sought-after exotic stones in the design world. Its appearance resembles a watercolor painting, with washes of blush pink, salmon, and white swirling together. Because it is a form of cryptocrystalline quartz, it has a glass-like polish and a unique ability to transmit light. When installed with LED backlighting, the stone comes alive, revealing depth and intricate textures hidden within the slab.
خصائص الحجر
Onyx is distinct from Granite or Marble. Key features include:
- Translucency: High light transmission capability. Ideal for dramatic lighting effects.
- Texture: Extremely smooth, glass-like surface when polished.
- Fragility: It is a delicate stone. Our slabs are professionally treated with resin and fiberglass mesh on the back to ensure structural integrity during transport and installation.

وصف اللون والنمط
أونيكس وردي offers a feminine, sophisticated aesthetic. The background ranges from a soft “baby pink” to a saturated “dusty rose.” White calcite veins and clouds float across the surface, creating a dreamy, ethereal look. Some slabs may contain small golden or brown inclusions, which add organic character to the stone.

التعبئة والتركيب
التعبئة والتغليف: Slabs are packed in strong fumigated wooden bundles or A-frames. We use extra padding to prevent breakage.
Installation Note: Onyx is softer than granite. Use a white, non-staining adhesive. For backlit applications, ensure the LED light sheet is evenly distributed and the stone is supported by a clear substrate (like glass or acrylic) if necessary.
Buying Guide: Natural Onyx Slabs
كيف / لماذا / ماذا / الخيارات / الاعتبارات
- How it’s formed: Onyx is a sedimentary stone formed in caves as dripstones. This slow process creates the bands and translucency.
- Why choose Pink Onyx: For the “Wow Factor.” It is purely a decorative, luxury statement.
- What to consider: Maintenance. Onyx reacts to acids (lemon, wine). It must be sealed and treated with care.
- الخيارات: “Book-matching.” We can polish two sequential slabs to create a mirrored butterfly pattern, which is stunning on a large wall.
- Handling: It is brittle. Always hire an experienced stone fabricator who knows how to cut onyx without cracking it.
FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions
1. Can Pink Onyx be backlit?
Yes, absolutely. Pink Onyx is one of the best stones for backlighting. The light passes through the pink areas, creating a warm, glowing effect.
2. Is it suitable for kitchen countertops?
We generally advise against it for heavy-use kitchens. Onyx is softer than granite and sensitive to acids (lemon, vinegar), which can etch the surface. It is better for bars or bathrooms.
3. Is it expensive?
Yes, Pink Onyx is considered a premium, semi-precious stone. The price is higher than standard marble due to its rarity and quarrying difficulty.
4. How do I clean it?
Use a soft cloth and warm water. You can use a specific “neutral stone cleaner.” Never use glass cleaner, vinegar, or abrasive scrubbers.
5. Does it come in tiles?
We primarily stock large slabs, but we can cut tiles (e.g., 600x600mm) for your project upon request.
6. Is the color natural?
Yes, the pink color is 100% natural, created by iron dehydration within the stone formation. It is not dyed.
7. How big are the slabs?
Slabs vary, but typically range from 2000x1200mm up to 2800x1700mm. We will send photos of available stock sizes.
8. Is it fragile?
Yes, onyx is more brittle than granite. Our slabs come with a fiberglass mesh backing to provide extra strength.
9. What is Book-Matching?
This is when we polish two adjoining slabs on opposite sides so they mirror each other, creating a symmetrical pattern like a butterfly.
10. Can I use it in a shower?
Yes, for walls it is beautiful. For shower floors, it can be slippery when polished and requires regular sealing.
11. What thickness is available?
Standard thickness is 18mm or 20mm. 16mm is sometimes available for lighter weight applications.
12. How do I install backlighting?
You install an LED light sheet (panel) on the wall first, then install the onyx slab in front of it with a small air gap or using transparent adhesive.
13. Does the color vary between slabs?
Yes, significantly. We strongly recommend approving the specific slab photos before we ship.
14. What is the MOQ?
We can ship as little as one bundle (approx. 5-7 slabs), or mix it with other stones in a container.
15. Do you offer cut-to-size services?
Yes, our factory has bridge saws and CNC machines to cut the slabs to your exact project dimensions.
