Onyx – Taking the traditions of northern Thai handicraft a step further
Olivier Laurent is one of the founders of Onyx. Feeling fed up chasing deadlines and caught up in the stress in a major European company, Olivier left Europe for Chiang Mai. When his friend Xavier who was already in Thailand asked if he wanted to join in to start up a new business, Olivier didn’t hesitate. It took him only a month to move to Chiang Mai and soon after Onyx saw the daylight. In the beginning Onyx was trying to make their products in Ban Tawai but the result wasn’t 100% satisfactory, so they decided to open their own factory. For a good three years now Onyx founders have been working hard to build their brand and developing their products.
