Agate and Onyx are both varieties of layered chalcedony that differ only in the form of the bands. Agate has curved bands and onyx has parallel bands. Onyx primarily refers to the parallel banded variety of the silicate mineral chalcedony and is rated at a 7 on the Mohs hardness scale. The colors of its bands range from white to almost every color. 

Onyx is an excellent stone for initiating the modes of centering and alignment of the total person with the higher powers. It can be utilized to banish grief, to enhance self control, to stimulate the power of wise decision making, and to encourage happiness and good fortune. It helps one absorb, from the universe, those energies which are needed. Onyx is referred to as a grounding stone in the metaphysical world.

Each piece is similar, though no item at Crystal Joys is exactly the same as every item uses a unique stone that is non-fabricated.  Every item at Crystal Joys is truly "one of a kind". Slight variations in color, size and bead shape exist.
