Drag the slab to turn it, or use the arrow keys. Switching finish re-renders the surface — polished throws a hard specular, the abraded finishes open the surface up and knock the colour back.
Colorful Onyx carries green, amber and cream in the same slab, which is the appeal and also the whole problem: no two pieces are alike and nothing matches. It is sold slab by slab for that reason. You are buying the piece you have been shown, not a material with a name. The bands run at a coarser, more disturbed scale than the single-colour onyx, so one panel already contains several colour changes and does not need a neighbour to be worth looking at. Polished only, slabs and cut-to-size. Cut-to-size is supplied piece-marked to a setting-out plan, which matters more here than elsewhere, because the layout has to be drawn on the actual slab — the pattern will not come back on the next one. Feature walls, backlit panels, bar fronts, table tops and decorative objects are the listed uses, and all of them are one-offs.
Beige Onyx is what to ask for when the job needs quantity — warm banding consistent enough to run across several panels. Colorful Onyx is the opposite proposition: one slab, one place, no repeat.

Photographs
Colorful Onyx in the yard
Photographs of our own blocks, slabs and finished work. Slab photography shows one slab — the block it came from is what you are quoted against.
Laid out
Colorful Onyx across a floor
A photograph shows one slab on a stand. This shows the stone tile after tile — where the pattern repeats, how far the tone drifts across a batch, and what the joint does to it. Every tile here is cut from a different part of the surface, the way material comes out of a real crate.
Indicative layout. Tone drift is deliberate — no two tiles from one batch match exactly, and a laid floor should never look like one photograph repeated.
In the room
Colorful Onyx against your wall colour
Nobody buys stone on a white background. Put Colorful Onyx on the floor, up the wall or across a worktop, set the colour it will actually sit against, and change the light — the same three questions every client asks on a site visit, answered before the sample ships.
A scene, not a render of your project: proportions are indicative and colour on a screen is never the colour in a room. Send us the drawings and we will lay the real slab sizes out against your setting-out.
Surface
Colorful Onyx, close up
The slab above turns; this is the same stone at the size it sits in your hand. Change the finish and it re-cuts.
Roughly a 130 mm span of Colorful Onyx, polished. A rendered preview, not a photograph of stock — ask for a physical sample before you specify.

Asked about this stone
Colorful Onyx — questions buyers ask
Can you supply matched slabs?
No. It is sold slab by slab and the colours land differently in every piece — a second slab carries the same green, amber and cream in a different arrangement. If the job needs repeatable panels, this is the wrong stone.
How do I choose a slab?
By photograph of the specific piece, before anything is cut. The setting-out is then drawn onto that slab, because a layout planned on one piece cannot be transferred to another.
Is polished the only finish?
Yes. Honed is not offered for this one, which is worth knowing early if the rest of the scheme is matt.
Table tops are listed — how do they hold up?
Table tops in this material tend to be single decorative pieces rather than working surfaces. The stone is soft and acid-sensitive, so anything wiped down daily or used for drinks will show it.
