Back-lit, Translucent Stone Panels From StonePly
While granite, limestone, and other types of natural stone are completely opaque, onyx, alabaster, and marble are translucent. When back-lighting is used on panels fabricated from these stones, their ability to transmit light gives them a luminous appearance. Illumination also reveals the subtle details of the complex patterning found in these extraordinary stones.
Translucent stone panels by StonePly are suitable for many applications, and back-lighting ensures they will be brilliant and radiant focal points regardless of where they are placed.
Advantages of StonePly’s Translucent Stone Panels
- Larger and thinner pieces of translucent stone can be used to fabricate panels, allowing for better light transmission
- The glass layer of our translucent stone panels can face out to protect against weathering and damage
- Polycarbonate and glass lamination allows for the production of bullet-proof panels
- Translucent stone panels are shatter-resistant, lightweight, and quick to install
Applications For Back-lit, Translucent Stone Panels
Translucent stone panels can be used to craft many attention-grabbing illuminated elements, such as:
- Bar tops
- Ceilings
- Columns
- Floors
- Interior walls
- Elevator ceilings
- Counters
- Desks

We can source natural onyx, marble, and alabaster from within the United States as well as from international locations such as South Africa, China, and Spain. We will do our best to locate the exact pattern and shade you desire for your illuminated natural stone bar top, feature wall, or floor.
Fabrication and Installation of StonePly Natural Stone Panels
Lightweight and shatter-resistant translucent stone panels are created by bonding a thin layer of light-emitting stone to glass or polycarbonate using epoxy. The pieces of translucent stone are slid into U-shaped channels. Finally, all joints are sealed. The attachment system will not create any unsightly shadows and dark areas behind individual panels, and provides adequate room for the addition of back-lighting.
