Gettin' Stoned on Black Onyx

Polished Black Onyx
One of the first gemstones I used in my men's bracelet designs was black onyx with a matte finish. It is one of my favorite stones to work with when designing jewelry for men. Black onyx symbolizes eloquence. It reflects an understated style.

Like men, black onyx appears tough at first glance, but when you experience this stone up close and person, you find that it's fragile and must be handled with care.

Stick around, I'll be making more men's bracelets, skull bracelets and eventually men's necklaces with black onyx.
