Yellow Onyx

Yellow Onyx

Yellow Onyx is a natural semi-precious stone, where soft beige and golden-brown waves run across a warm, honeyed base. Every slab is unique: in nature, no two are ever the same.

Onyx carries light. It lets light pass through to a depth of several centimetres, so backlighting brings out the pattern and depth in a striking way. It is exactly this quality that makes onyx a prized material for prestige interior surfaces.

Yellow Onyx is suited above all to decorative surfaces: back-lit wall panels, bar counters, reception desks and bathroom accent surfaces. It is a luxurious detail that draws the eye.

GMI makes onyx surfaces to measure: measuring, fabrication and installation across Estonia and Scandinavia.

Where it works

  • Back-lit wall panels and decorative walls
  • Bar counters and reception desks
  • Bathroom accent surfaces
  • Prestige details in hotels and restaurants

Onyx is a more delicate stone than granite or quartz, so it is used for decorative surfaces rather than for high-use kitchen worktops.

Character

  • Warm, honeyed base with golden-brown and beige wave-like veins
  • Partly translucent, suited to backlighting
  • Every slab unique, the pattern does not repeat
  • More resistant to chemical effects than marble
  • Sensitive to mechanical pressure and impact
  • A natural stone, porous and needing careful use

Care

Onyx is a natural, porous stone that needs gentle care. Wipe the surface with a soft cloth after use, avoid acidic cleaners and sharp knocks. To prevent staining we recommend sealing the surface; acidic liquids (lemon, wine, vinegar) should be wiped away at once. With the right care, onyx keeps its depth and shine for years.

FAQ

Quartz is poreless. This makes it an ideal material for the use in the kitchen and bathroom. Because of this characteristic, it does not absorb liquids thus preventing the appearance of stains. It is almost impossible to scratch quartz countertops, so you should not be afraid to damage it with a knife or other sharp object by accident.

In addition, quartz countertops are absolutely non-toxic and harmless when in contact with food products. A key advantage of the quartz countertop, which will be used in the kitchen, is its absolute stability to stains, and in the bathroom – its water resistance and resistance to the fungus growth.

The kitchen countertops are exposed to a wide variety of effects and loads, so it must meet high operating requirements. The most suitable material for the manufacture of kitchen countertops is quartz stone, as this is the most practical solution for the kitchen. There are almost no scratches on the quartz countertop surface and most importantly, it is resistant to staining, since quartz does not absorb the coloring liquids.

The granite countertop has a porous structure, resulting in the absorption of moisture and, consequently, in the formation of stains, especially on the light-toned surfaces.

Natural marble absorbs the coloring liquids even more; therefore, it is not recommended to use this stone for the manufacture of kitchen countertops.

A frequent cause of the customers’ concern is the weight of products made of quartz or granite. Do not worry that the kitchen cabinets will not support the weight of a countertop because the competent installation guarantees the balanced distribution of the weight of a countertop to all load-bearing elements. So, the weight of a countertop is not a threat to the entire structure.

The material of 12, 20 and 30 mm thick are used for the manufacture of stone products. At the same time, a product may have any apparent thickness by gluing the stone of desired height to its end at an angle of 45 degrees.

We try to avoid unnecessary joints as possible. If the joints on the product cannot be avoided, our specialists adjust the elements in such a way that the junction looks almost invisible.

The surface made of quartz agglomerate does not need additional treatment with protective agents.
The surface made of granite and marble should be treated with special protective agents. Therefore, the sealing procedure should be carried out.
