Sahara Lumen
A warm amber onyx that transmits light as banded, layered depth.
Onyx
Hoggar Rose
A pale rose onyx that transmits a warm pink light rather than amber.
The material
Hoggar Rose is the rarest material in the house and the one we most often decline to supply. The banding is fine and close, and the ground transmits a soft pink rather than the amber of Sahara Lumen — a colder, quieter light that suits a bar front or a bathroom panel better than a full wall. Lots are small and slabs are selected individually; we will not accept an order that needs more continuous area than a block can honestly give. As with all onyx, the lighting detail decides the result more than the stone does, and we ask to see the box section before a drawing is issued.
