This minimalist necklace with black onyx catches the eye with a depth of colour that reveals subtle glints on the stone's facets with every turn of the head. The simple, thin chain doesn't draw attention away from the onyx - the stone leads the eye, while the overall form stays light and distinctly modern. In jewellery tradition, onyx has been associated with strength, resilience and self-confidence, making it a fitting choice for a gift with a personal message.

The stones in this necklace were chosen so that the colour and intensity of the onyx are even across every facet, with no discolouration or difference in shine. Silver and good stones get more expensive year after year, and consistent quality at this price point is becoming harder to find. Refined silver of European quality frames the onyx, and the 925 fineness confirms the purity of this alloy, which matters when worn daily against the skin. Silver stamped with the French maker's mark attests the origin of the metal. The rhodium layer protects the surface against tarnishing and scratches, so the necklace keeps its shine for a long time and doesn't require frequent cleaning.

The necklace measures 42 centimetres, with an adjustable 4-centimetre extension, so you can easily set it at the neckline just the way you like. It works perfectly for everyday wear - with a soft grey or beige sweater, where the black onyx clearly stands out against a calm, monochromatic outfit. Under a simple turtleneck or an open-collar shirt, the stone stays the centre of attention while the rest of the outfit plays a supporting role. This is jewellery you can wear without a second thought about what to pair it with.
