Black onyx chips in 5-8mm sizes bring the grounding depth of enhanced black onyx to freeform, organic designs — each piece slightly irregular in shape, which is exactly the point.

The enhanced black onyx delivers a deep, consistent black that reads as both moody and polished, with a richness that holds its own against metals and other stones.

What to make with them

String them on wire or thread for layered bohemian necklaces where the chip shapes add natural texture, or mix them into rosary-style or chakra strands where their root chakra associations add intentional meaning alongside round or faceted beads.

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.
