FURTHER INFORMATION
Onyx is a trade name for sintered limestone, which is very similar in origin to travertine. Onyx is also formed as a limestone precipitate, but in hot water springs with mineral impurities that create surprising, beautiful colours. Due to its special lime structure, onyx is harder than marble and limestone and is rather difficult to work with.
Stone is a natural product. We endeavour to reproduce the appearance of our sculptural stones as accurately as possible in the illustrations so that the character of the stone can be recognised. Ultimately, each stone is unique and the appearance may differ from the illustration.
