The Historical Significance of Onyx
Onyx has been treasured for centuries, dating back to ancient civilisations such as the Egyptians and Romans who used it extensively in jewellery and amulets. Known for its striking black tones interspersed with white bands in some varieties, onyx was thought to confer strength and protection to its wearer. Its enduring appeal lies in its timeless elegance and versatility in decorative objects.

Myths and Legends Surrounding Onyx
Throughout history, onyx has been shrouded in myth and legend. In classical mythology, it was believed the stone could absorb negative energy and deflect ill fortune. Some cultures consider onyx a powerful talisman for courage, used by warriors heading to battle to instil bravery. Folklore often links black onyx with grounding and stabilising energies, offering emotional balance.

Therapeutic Qualities Attributed to Onyx
Onyx is widely regarded in the realm of crystal healing as a stone that fosters strength and self-control. It is thought to assist in alleviating fear and anxiety by anchoring the mind in the present. Many turn to onyx for its purported ability to enhance mental stamina and resilience, making it a popular choice for personal growth and meditation practices.

Geology and Physical Characteristics of Black Onyx
Black onyx is a variety of chalcedony, primarily composed of silicon dioxide. It ranks between 6.5 and 7 on the Mohs hardness scale, indicating a robust durability suitable for daily wear. The stone’s deep black hue is a result of iron or manganese impurities, and the frosted finish on these beads highlights their smooth texture while reducing surface glare.
