Blue Sky Onyx is a variety of onyx that is prized for its vibrant blue color with streaks of white, grey or even yellow veins. It is a popular choice for countertops, flooring, and wall cladding due to its beauty and uniqueness.
Here are some of the properties and applications of Blue Sky Onyx:
- Color: Vibrant blue base with streaks of white, grey or even yellow veins.
- Properties: Blue Sky Onyx is a relatively hard and durable stone, but it is still susceptible to scratching and etching like other forms of onyx. It also benefits from sealing to protect it from stains.
- Applications: Countertops, backsplashes, wall cladding, flooring, and other design projects. Due to its vibrant color, it is best used in small doses or with neutral colors to avoid overwhelming a space.
Here are some additional things to consider about Blue Sky Onyx:

- Source: The highest quality Blue Onyx is found in Argentina, while most other commercial deposits are found in Mexico.
