Jet Black Onyx Round 8mm

$819 $1365

SKU: 8ST401

These 8mm black onyx rounds are enhanced natural stone — smooth, substantial, and deeply black in a way that glass just doesn't replicate. If you're building something with real weight and presence, this is the bead for it.

The enhanced finish gives each bead an intense, uniform black with a polished surface that catches light cleanly — no variation, no distraction, just that classic onyx depth.

What to make with them

String them into a single-strand statement necklace or stack multiple strands for a bold, layered look; they're also a natural anchor bead in chakra or intention bracelets where the root chakra association matters to your customer.

Description

Onyx, a banded variety of the quartz family, is mined in Brazil, India, Madagascar, U.S.A and Uruguay. The only difference between onyx and other banded agates is that the stripes of onyx are even and uniform. Black onyx's uniform black color is achieved by dyeing and or by heat treating. The name Onyx is a Greek word meaning claw or fingernail, as it was once believed that onyx was created from the goddess Venus's fingernail clippings. Onyx and Sardonyx are essentially the same stone: onyx will have a black base, and sardonyx has a brown base.
