On the Mohs Hardness Scale, Onyx is a relatively soft natural stone and therefore has the potential to scratch and stain. It is also an expensive material, and may require frequent maintenance for its scratched and stained surface. It is not recommended especially in places with heavy human traffic. It is more suitable to be used in wall coverings, decorative ornaments, columns, balustrade, bathroom counters, etc.

Onyx is actually a type of marble and it has many of the same properties. An interesting quality of onyx is its lack of opacity. Onyx is more translucent than marble, making it a great stone for lighting or for creative purposes like a backlit wall or surface that casts a glow and enhances the stone's patterns

The ancient Egyptians used a slightly harder form of Alabaster, a Calcite Alabaster, for their arts and crafts which is more durable and contains the added mineral Calcite (CaCO3). Onyx on the other hand is made of much harder microcrystalline Quartz (SiO2).
