Black Onyx, also known as black agate, is dyed black chalcedony. Chalcedony is composed of microscopic quartz crystals not visible to the naked eye. Natural black chalcedony is exceptionally rare — virtually all black chalcedony on the market is grey chalcedony that has been chemically treated to achieve its characteristic deep, shiny black color. Black Onyx is the top-selling chalcedony in the jewelry market and has a rich history of use in Art Deco jewelry design.
These genuine cabochons feature a cushion flat top double bevel profile with a pre-drilled hole, making them well-suited for pendants, earrings, and other fabricated jewelry settings. The uniform opaque black color and consistent form make them a reliable choice for professional jewelers.
