Mexican Onyx Angel - Hand Carved Stone Angel Figurine, 6.25 Inch

Hand carved in banded Mexican onyx, this angel has soft cream and white tones and simple, peaceful lines that suit almost any room.

Place it on a mantel, bookshelf, nightstand or altar, or give it as a sympathy, remembrance, housewarming or confirmation gift. An angel is a gentle way to mark a loss or a new beginning. Its size gives it presence without overwhelming a shelf.

Each angel is about 6.25 inches tall with wings about 4.5 inches across, and weighs about 1.25 pounds. Because each is hand carved from natural stone, banding and shape vary slightly.

About Mexican Onyx

The stone sold as Mexican onyx is banded calcite, not true onyx, which is a form of chalcedony. Calcite is calcium carbonate with a hardness of 3 on the Mohs scale, so it carves beautifully but scratches more easily than quartz.

Symbolism: Angels are traditionally associated with guidance and comfort.
