BLACK ONYX

In the ancient world,
Onyx was more than an ornamental stone.
Its deep, polished surface made it
a favored material for seals,
amulets and engraved objects
across Greece and Rome.

Its name comes from the Greek word onyx,
meaning “fingernail” or “claw,”
and is linked to an ancient myth
involving Aphrodite.
According to the legend,
fragments of the goddess’s nails
fell into a river
and were transformed into stone.

Roman artisans particularly valued Onyx
for cameos and intaglios,
taking advantage of its contrasting layers
to create remarkably detailed engravings.
Over time, Black Onyx,
with its intense and mysterious darkness,
became especially associated
with strength, protection and grounding.

Its almost absolute black color
gives the stone a powerful simplicity.
Elegant and timeless,
Black Onyx has remained
a distinctive presence in jewelry,
from ancient amulets
to contemporary creations.
