Beaded necklaces in precious gemstones, cultured pearls, or solid precious metal beads are fine jewelry by every standard measure since they all are carefully crafted out of valued materials.
Stone Story
Black onyx is almost always treated chalcedony. Gray or brownish stone is processed with sugar solution and sulfuric acid to carbonize organic material, producing a stable black that has been standard practice since ancient Rome. The treatment has no meaningful effect on durability, which is useful information when considering a gift of black onyx.
