Look Good, Feel Better Wearing Black Onyx

Did you know how wearing Black Onyx can enhance your wellbeing?  It can!  Onyx is a type of microcrystalline quartz which has been prized throughout history. The highest quality onyx is found in the mines located in the central area of Turkey known as Cappadocia. Turks believe that onyx stones have properties that help protect the wearer from harm. According to the Encyclopedia of Gemstones, “Onyx is associated with strength, and is considered to be a “grounding” stone. This gemstone eliminates negative thinking and is also believed to sharpen the wits of the wearer.” Black onyx helps improve concentration and devotion too which is why many rosaries are made of black onyx.  Since onyx is a strength-giving stone, it assists with confidence and is useful for athletes or people under stress!  (adapted from Mr. Bead).
