Glossy black onyx is cut and polished into this large tower with faceted sides and an apex at the top, then drilled so it can hang. It measures about 2 to 3 inches long and 1 by 1 inch, and weighs about 50 to 60 grams.
The hole lets you slide it onto a chain, cord or jump ring and wear it as a pendant, and the faceted apex also makes it a neat point for a crystal grid or collection. The solid black color pairs with any outfit or metal.
Choose a sturdy chain or cord for its weight. Most black onyx on the market is color treated chalcedony, so avoid harsh cleaners and wipe it with a soft cloth. Each tower varies slightly in size.
