Artisans can carve amber onyx stone into a variety of shapes, including sculptures. These sculptures can be abstract or representational and can vary in size from small tabletop pieces to large installations. Due to the unique properties of the amber onyx stone, sculptures made from this material can have a warm, inviting glow when backlit, making them a popular choice for decorative purposes.

Amber onyx sculptures can be found in various cultural contexts, including traditional and contemporary art, and can be used as a centerpiece for decoration or as a part of a larger installation. They are valued for their aesthetic beauty and the intricate craftsmanship that goes into their creation.
