Onyx
Bold, dark-sounding name
Onyx is a banded variety of chalcedony, typically with alternating layers of black and white.
The solid black form is most familiar in jewelry and decorative objects: an onyx ring, onyx cufflinks.
The stone's darkness makes it a symbol of elegance or mourning.
In ancient times, onyx was carved into cameos and seals.
