Onyx Slabs in Two Kinds of Light: What the Face Reveals before Fabrication

Onyx is sold through color, but selected through light. The same slab can appear quiet in reflected light and reveal clouds, bands, repairs, resin, and hidden fractures when illumination passes through it. This MQ STONE reference follows natural onyx from full-face review to transmitted-light mapping, thickness, backing, bookmatching, fabrication, edge design, support, and care. It is intended for walls, counters, bars, and furniture where the stone’s depth must remain convincing both when the light is on and when it is off.
