Black Onyx is a member of the chalcedony family (a form of quartz) and is ideal for carving, engraving, and fashioning into beads. A versatile and durable stone, onyx was also used to make tools. Popular worldwide, it is the most common of all gems. Ancients believed black onyx cured insomnia, bred prudence and caution, and brought its owner strength and victory in battle. It is a popular belief that Onyx has the power to cure mental and physical illness inherited from past lives. The people of India believe Onyx provides protection from the evil eye and the people of the Middle East use it to take away negative energies.
