Expert Handling Required Onyx is a delicate material. At Caron Stone, we treat every slab with care:
- Resin Treatment: We use high-quality epoxy resin to fill natural voids and strengthen the slab structure.

- Lighting Advice: For the best backlit effect, we recommend using uniform LED light sheets installed 5-10cm behind the stone.
FAQ
Q: Can Blue Moon Onyx be used for kitchen countertops? A: While beautiful, Onyx is softer and more porous than granite or quartz. We recommend it for bar tops, vanitiesof vertical walls. If used in a kitchen, it must be sealed frequently and treated with care to avoid scratching or etching.
Q: How do I achieve the backlit effect? A: You need to install a light source (LED panels are best) behind the stone. The stone is translucent, allowing the light to pass through. We can guide your contractor on the proper spacing.
Q: Do you sell tiles or just slabs? A: We primarily sell large slabs to maintain the continuity of the vein pattern (book-matching). However, we can cut these slabs into tiles for specific project requirements.
