Jo's notes.
Black Onyx, according to Greek legend, was created by accident when the Greek God Eros accidently shot his mothers' finger nail; his mother being the Goddess of Love Aphrodite. Eros was trying to shoot Cupid at the time. Aphrodites nail fell from Mount Olympus into the Indus River, forming Black Onyx. Onyx being the greek word for fingernail/claw. Black onyx is believe to protect, and strengthen, helping the owner/wearer to find balance and peace of mind.
It took time to source these exquisite high grade, facetted briolettes, I believe it was certainly worth the effort! Black Onyx, a type of Chalcedony, is a fairly hard stone, scoring 7 on the Mohs scale of mineral hardness.
Created in the UK on sterling silver.
