If you go through jewelry history and people’s acceptance of gemstones, you will notice an odd one standing out. Just like the shunning of the black cat, the color of the black onyx gave this stone a negative connotation for many years. Some cultures negate its beauty by relating it to sadness and bad dreams. Some say that the onyx is terrible because it will suck out your energy.
But in these modern times, all those negative beliefs are but ancient history. People now appreciate the real beauty of this gemstone. Nowadays, the black onyx is used to symbolize protection and helps the bearer to be free from negative energies that tend to cloud the mind. Some say the black onyx even helps the wearer make better decisions as it gives balance and eliminates doubts and fears.
Now that you know these things, it’s time to stop ignoring the beauty of the sleek black onyx. Start incorporating it into your jewelry wardrobe. As black goes well with everything, having a black onyx accessory is having one that you can wear every day. In terms of design, the onyx works well as a complement to other gemstones for an overall balanced look.
A perfect example of that balance is the Diamond and Black Onyx Circle Pendant with an 18-karat rose gold chain designed by Tiffany & Co. This circle pendant highlights the unique sheen of the black onyx and is made even more eye-catching by the 0.05-carat round brilliant white diamonds that surround it. This pendant sits in beautiful 18k rose gold with an adjustable chain that’s 16 to 18 inches long.
Combining these three elements, you will have a modern necklace that exudes elegance, ferocity, and strength. If its simplicity is a little lacking for you, you can always jazz it up by layering it with other pieces, like the rest of the offerings in Tiffany & Co’s signature T collection.
You can purchase this smooth Diamond and Black Onyx Circle Pendant for $2,600. If you’re planning to give it as a gift, you can have it custom engraved with a sweet forever message: perfect as a birthday, anniversary, graduation, or promotion gift.
