The listing, NEW BLACK ONYX, BROWN AGATE, & STERLING SILVER NECKLACE with CAMEO PENDANT has ended.
This is a 20" necklace I made out of black onyx, brown agate, and sterling silver. The black onyx pendant is 1" X 1 3/4" with a brown cameo lady on it. All of the silver is .925 sterling. If bids go to 1000 I will throw in a pair of matching earrings.
Agate is the Mystical birthstone for September. It is also the birth stone for the Zodiac sign of Gemini. Agate has been found with the remains of Stone Age man in France from as early as 20,000-16,000 B.C. and the Egyptians used agates prior to 3000 B.C. for talismans, amulets, seals, rings and vessels. Early civilizations used eye beads to protect them from evil and bring good luck. They created eye beads by carving a hole through an agate disc.
Onyx is the Mystical birthstone for the month of December. It is also the birth stone for the Zodiac sign of Leo. Onyx is a chalcedony quartz found in Brazil, India, California and Uruguay. As a healing stone, onyx is used to strengthen and cure diseases of the heart and kidneys, to reduce stress and neurological disorders, remove apathy, to improve eyesight and to ensure a good night's sleep.
Onyx powers include eliminating negative thoughts, sharpening the wits and promoting spiritual inspiration.
