Handmade gemstone jewelry - black onyx

I've always thought of black onyx as a versatile, dramatic, striking gemstone. I really like faceted onyx - the very shiny, smooth facets reflect the light, creating a contrast of sparkly light against dark. Because it's it's a neutral color, black onyx can be used with many different gemstones, and it has the beauty and drama to be used as a single gemstone.
 
Onyx is a form of chalcedony, very fine microcrystalline quartz.
