These 8mm enhanced black onyx rounds deliver a deep, uniform black that natural onyx rarely achieves on its own — a reliable go-to when you need consistent color across an entire piece.

Enhancement brings out a rich, saturated black with the smooth, glassy surface you'd expect from a well-finished round gemstone bead.

What to make with them

String them into a single-strand bracelet or multi-strand necklace where the 8mm size carries enough visual weight to stand on its own, or mix them with silver findings and other dark stones for layered Gothic or Victorian-inspired designs.

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.
