  • Calcareous Onyx
    Volume VI, Issue I November 2011 Calcareous Onyx 1.0 Introduction: A resurgence in the use of decorative onyx has been noted over recent years, as designers and specifiers have rediscovered the exciting effects that can be done with this beautiful geological material. The striking colors available in this rock type, ac- centuated by strong veining character and unique translucent properties, have created bold statements within spaces designed by some of today’s most imaginative architects. Effec- tive use of this material, however, requires a deep level of understanding of the formation, structure, and composition of the rock. This paper will unlock some of the mysteries and secrets of working with this natural wonder. The name “onyx” is derived from the Greek word “onux” meaning “claw” or “fingernail”, so called for its resemblance with the translucence and color of a finger- nail. In ancient Egypt, onyx (also known as Egyptian alabaster) was highly appreciated for its colorful translucency. It was used to make small perfume bottles, unguent vases (called alabastra), canopic jars and various other sacred and sepulchral objects. Reported in 77 AD by Pliny the Elder in his Photo 1: A Backlit Onyx Bartop encyclopedic Naturalis Historia, marmor alabasterum was the name the ancient Romans called the calcareous material quarried along the Nile Valley in the Alabastron locality near Thebes, Egypt. Further confusion around the use of the term “marble onyx” comes from its use as a syno- nym for the term “alabaster,” which also refers to two distinctly different minerals: hydrated calcium sulphate (gypsum) and calcite. Gypsum alabaster has been quarried since ancient time in central Italy near the city of Volterra.

  • Black Onyx Gemstones
    Sell With a Story: Black Onyx Gemstones Ominous and opaque like an October midnight, black onyx gemstones are uniquely renowned for their jet-black luster. Unlike more obscure semiprecious stones like, say, hematite or fluorite, there’s something instantly recognizable about onyx. Its name is used to brand businesses, loyalty programs, software, bands, and heck, it’s even a popular pet name. Onyx is nearly as iconic a label as diamond or platinum. So, what is it about onyx that makes it so well-known?Perhaps the answer is surprisingly simple. What makes black onyx gemstones so popular? A variety of chalcedony, onyx is a cryptocrystalline form of quartz. It stems from the same family as agate, bloodstone, carnelian, chrysoprase, and sardonyx. In fact, it’s a variant of agate, comprised of parallel back and white colored bands. Onyx is traditionally darker in shade, while its sister stone, sardonyx, has white bands with red and brown coloring. So, if onyx comes in multiple color varieties, why are black onyx gemstones so well-known? Perhaps it’s the stone’s murky opacity that sets it apart. Few others are as dense, edgy, and commanding. It stands alone for a bold and richly self-assured look, while dramatically complimenting brilliantly colored gemstones or metallic silver and gold finishes. Its versatility and affordability bring the stone to the forefront of fashion. Yet sadly, true black onyx gemstones are extremely rare; most on the market are artificially treated. Shop black onyx gemstones at Stuller.com The origin of onyx Stemming from a Latin word of the same spelling, Onyx derives from the Greek word for “claw” or “fingernail.” Legend holds that while she was fast asleep, Cupid mischievously clipped Venus’ fingernails, leaving them strewn about on the sand.
