About This Collection

Pink Banded Onyx is a banded variety of Calcite — more accurately classified as a banded Calcite or Onyx Marble rather than a true Onyx, which is technically a banded form of Chalcedony. Its soft, flowing bands of blush pink, rose, cream, and white are created by the rhythmic deposition of calcium carbonate-rich fluids in alternating layers over thousands of years, with the delicate pink colouration produced by trace amounts of iron oxide and other mineral impurities. Significant sources include Mexico, Pakistan, India, and Brazil. Its translucency — which allows light to pass through thinner specimens and reveal the full beauty of its layered interior — makes it a particularly prized material for decorative objects, carvings, and jewellery.

Benefits & How to Use
