Pink Onyx is a rare and breathtaking natural stone primarily quarried in Iran and Afghanistan. This exotic variety of onyx is defined by its luminous rose-pink to magenta background, often interlaced with delicate white, cream, or golden veining. Celebrated for its exceptional translucency, it is a premier choice for backlit applications like feature walls and luxury bar tops, where light reveals its ethereal, cloud-like depth. Geologically formed from calcium carbonate in mineral-rich caves, its vibrant coloration is often attributed to dehydrated iron elements. While softer than granite, its unique aesthetic makes it a crown jewel of high-end interior design. Legend has it that onyx originated from the fingernail clippings of the goddess Venus, which the Fates transformed into stone to ensure no part of her divine body would ever perish.
On hand at our Los Angeles yard: 3 slabs of Pink Onyx, a 2 cm rose and white onyx in a polished finish. Lot 106020 measures about 112″ × 60″.
This slab
The recorded size of a slab in this lot is 112″ × 60″, about 47 square feet. Thickness is 2 cm. The color on record is rose and white. Natural stone still varies inside that description, so the slab itself is the reference for movement and shade.
The polished finish is reflective and lets the color read clearly. Two centimeters is a standard slab thickness for counters, vanities, and wall cladding.
In the yard
Lot 106020 at our Los Angeles yard shows 3 slabs in stock, none on hold, and 3 slabs available. Available means in stock minus slabs on hold.
The slabs can be compared in daylight at our Los Angeles yard before anything is cut.
Where it works
For this kind of stone, the usual applications are feature walls, backsplashes, and accent panels. The right use still depends on the finish, the thickness, and how the slab will be cared for after it is installed. Inspiration photos show this stone in a Pink Onyx and a Kitchen.
The material
Onyx is a banded, often translucent stone. It is chosen for feature walls, backlit panels, and accents more often than for a hard-working kitchen. It is softer than granite and should be treated as a decorative stone. Light passing through a slab is part of the look, so thickness and finish both change how the color reads.
