Onyx Countertops
Find the finest onyx in Calgary for your kitchen, bathroom or other surfaces in your home at Stone Selection. Due to the unique way this stone naturally forms, onyx slab colours and patterns vary greatly, resulting in a unique and different look compared to most other natural stones. Onyx is formed by way of precipitate: water dripping and then evaporating, leaving behind a small amount of calcium carbonate and other minerals. Over thousands of years, the consolidated minerals form naturally magnificent onyx stone. Its dramatic patterns and beautiful colours make onyx countertops stand out as something very special, as is evident when viewing a beautiful onyx slab, countertop or onyx backsplash. Visit our onyx gallery to explore our selection of stone, and consider purchasing an onyx slab to elevate the look your home.
THE ADVANTAGE OF ONYX COUNTERS & ONYX BACKSPLASHES
Depending on your preferred sense of style and the room in your house you would like to enhance, you can choose a coloured or white onyx countertop for your one-of-a-kind stone. There are even onyx slabs that are translucent; in ancient times, onyx was used as windows before the advent of glass windows. Today, onyx is one of the few solid countertop and backsplash materials that can be backlit. Backlighting on an onyx counter or backsplash creates an incredibly beautiful and high-end look that appeals to many homeowners and gets designers excited. Due to its balance of ultra elegance and solid durability, many homeowners opt for an onyx backsplash
INVESTING IN AN ONYX COUNTERTOP OR ONYX BACKSPLASH
Due to the rare specifications of this unique stone, onyx slabs can be difficult to process. Onyx countertops are generally one of the more expensive natural stone options, but homeowners and designers alike feel the additional investment for an onyx counter or backsplash is worth it for special applications such as a wall feature or backlit countertop feature. Onyx backsplashes with a lighting design create stunning pieces of natural art that also perform an essential function within the home. It is important to note that onyx is a very soft stone and onyx kitchen countertops, in particular, are more sensitive to acids compared to some other natural stones. That makes protecting your onyx counters with proper protection products highly important.
