Dark Green Onyx
Description
Dark Green Onyx from Pakistan is one of the most prized Pakistani stones in international markets. Its deep, rich forest green colour with natural white veining creates a stone of extraordinary beauty and dramatic impact.
Pakistani Green Onyx is highly valued worldwide for its translucent quality. When backlit, Dark Green Onyx creates a stunning glowing effect that makes it one of the most spectacular stones for feature walls and luxury interiors.

Origin & Technical Profile
Origin: Quarried in Pakistan and supplied by FB Marble from local quarries, so lead times and transport costs are lower than for imported stone. Pakistani green onyx is mined mainly in the Chagai district of Balochistan and is one of the country's best-known stone exports.
What the slab looks like: Deep forest-green and emerald tones with natural white veins.

Practical note: Dark green onyx lets less light through than light green, so backlit panels need brighter LEDs or thinner slabs. Use soft cloths and pH-neutral cleaner only; treat it as a feature surface rather than a working surface.
Technical figures are typical ranges for this type of stone, not lab results for one block. Every natural slab differs in colour and pattern, so please view the actual slab before it is cut.
