Hardness of 6.5 to 7 on the Mohs scale, density of approximately 2.6, conchoidal fracture: it is a hard and tough material, perfectly suited to everyday wear. Its slight porosity allows it to absorb dye deeply, a practice already described by Pliny the Elder in connection with Roman agates. The name comes from the Greek \u003cem\u003eonux\u003c\/em\u003e, “nail,” in reference to the white-banded chalcedonies whose color it evoked.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTo know:\u003c\/strong\u003e the green color of these beads is not natural. The chalcedony is dyed, then heated to fix and even out the shade; this is the case for nearly all green onyx on the market. The color is stable in wear; simply avoid prolonged baths, solvents, and alcohol.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIn lithotherapy:\u003c\/strong\u003e green onyx is associated with the heart chakra; it is attributed virtues of balance, self-control, and calm energy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNatural product:\u003c\/strong\u003e size, shape, shade, and number of beads may vary slightly from one strand to another.
