Onice Alabastro Egiziano, or Egyptian onyx alabaster, is a rare historic calcite alabaster prized for its soft translucency, creamy ivory ground and delicate honey, amber, beige and clouded mineral veining. Known historically as Egyptian alabaster, Oriental alabaster or onyx-marble, this luminous stone belongs to one of the oldest decorative stone traditions in the world. Ancient Egyptian quarries, including the famous Hatnub quarries near Amarna, supplied calcite alabaster for vessels, statues, chapels, temple pavements, sarcophagi, altars and sacred architectural ornament from the Early Dynastic period onwards. The stone was also admired by the Romans, who associated Egyptian alabaster with luxury, ritual vessels and fine decorative objects.

Its natural ability to soften and diffuse light gives Onice Alabastro Egiziano an atmospheric quality quite unlike ordinary marble, making it especially suited to luxury interiors, backlit panels, bathrooms, bars, vanity tops, furniture, decorative slabs and architectural details where rare onyx, ancient provenance and luminous material character are central to the design.
