The name onyx originates from the Greek word "onux" which means "claw" or "fingernail". Ancient civilizations such as the Greeks and Romans believed that onyx was a powerful protective stone that could ward off negative energy and provide inner harmony. The Egyptians carved onyx into jewelry and decorative objects, and they believed that its black color was symbolic of rebirth and new beginnings.
Throughout the Middle Ages, onyx was often used in religious art and was seen as a symbol of purity and hope. During the Renaissance era, onyx was commonly used in cameos and intaglios, giving rise to its popularity in the decorative arts. Today, onyx continues to be coveted by jewelry designers and collectors alike, and its enduring beauty remains a testament to its rich and fascinating history.
