Black Onyx, Obsidian & Tourmaline Pendant Collection
Black onyx forms in the cavities of lava and appears in deposits across Brazil, India, and Uruguay. This chalcedony variety has been used in jewelry and carving for thousands of years, prized for its smooth texture and solid black color. Our onyx pendants showcase the stone's natural luster against polished sterling silver settings. Black obsidian originates from rapid volcanic cooling, creating a glass-like surface with a distinctive sheen. Mexico and the American Southwest produce significant quantities of this material. Black tourmaline, also called schorl, contains iron and forms in granite pegmatites. Madagascar, Brazil, and parts of Africa supply most commercial-grade specimens. This stone rates 7-7.5 on the Mohs scale, making it suitable for regular wear. SilverRush Style has specialized in natural stone jewelry since 2005. Every pendant ships with .925 sterling silver settings and arrives with free domestic delivery. Browse the full selection to find black pendants that match your preferred stone and price point.What is the difference between black onyx and black obsidian?
Black onyx is a form of chalcedony, a microcrystalline quartz that forms slowly in rock cavities. Black obsidian is volcanic glass created when lava cools rapidly. Onyx has a waxy luster and rates higher on the hardness scale (6.5-7) compared to obsidian (5-5.5).
How should I care for a black stone pendant?
Clean your pendant with warm water and mild soap using a soft cloth. Avoid ultrasonic cleaners for obsidian, as its glass structure can fracture. Store black stone pendants separately to prevent scratching from harder materials.
Are these natural black stones or dyed?
Our pendants feature natural black stones. While some black onyx in the market undergoes heat treatment to deepen color (an industry-standard practice), obsidian and tourmaline display their natural coloration without enhancement.
