Collection: Onyx

Onyx is a striking semi-precious stone, primarily composed of silica, whose wide range of colours comes from the natural deposition of various minerals over geological time. Each piece is distinct, featuring unique patterns and natural veining that are further shaped by how the stone is cut: a transverse (cross-cut) reveals circular designs, while a perpendicular (vein-cut) showcases linear patterns, significantly expanding its visual versatility. A key characteristic of onyx is its remarkable transparency, allowing light to pass through and illuminate its intricate details, a property influenced by its crystallisation. Despite its translucent nature, onyx is also prized for its durability, making it a highly versatile material for a broad spectrum of applications.
