ABOUT THE ARTWORK
Story
Onyx, known for its deep black tones and polished finish, has been valued throughout history for its grounding energy. Its name comes from the Greek onux (claw or fingernail), inspired by its smooth, layered appearance. Widely used in ancient Rome for carvings and seals, onyx was believed to provide strength and protection. This piece highlights the coarse textures and dark tones that embody onyx’s timeless appeal.
