Faceted links of black onyx line up along the bracelet in a regular, smooth rhythm, and each facet catches the light differently as the hand moves. The minimalist form carries no decoration beyond the stone itself - onyx draws the eye precisely through this simplicity. In ancient cultures this stone was linked with strength, endurance and self-confidence, which suits its muted, dark colour well. The bracelet measures 18 cm, and an adjustable 4 cm extension lets it fit a narrower or wider wrist.

Only part of the sorted raw material makes it into production - what matters is a uniform, deep black free of streaks and cracks, so the final onyx is genuinely selected. Silver and good stones get more expensive year after year, so a bracelet of this price and quality is a sensible choice now rather than later. Rhodium plating protects the silver against tarnishing and scratches, keeping the shine bright and clear for years to come. The metal is refined sterling silver 925 of European quality, and the pure alloy, free of nickel and other harmful additives, allows the bracelet to be worn without worrying about allergies or skin irritation. The French maker's mark on the piece attests to the origin of the silver.

The bracelet works best in a total black look - under a black turtleneck or a simple blouse with the sleeve slightly rolled up, so the onyx links stay visible on the wrist. Against a solid black background, the dark, faceted stone becomes a natural point the eye keeps returning to. The same bracelet also looks good with a grey jumper or a charcoal coat, where the cool grey further sets off the deep black of the onyx. Its simple form and light weight of 3.7 g make it comfortable to wear every day, not only for evening looks.
