Size of the onyx drops (dyed) approx. 12 x 6mm, length of the onyx strand approx. 40cm.
Gemstones cut in a drop shape are also known as pendeloque, briolette or pendule; other terms are pear cut, pear-core cut or pear-shape cut.
The name Onyx is derived from the Greek word "onyx" for "nail"; this name, which has been in use for many centuries, probably refers to the surface of the polished stone, which is reminiscent of shiny fingernails. Spellings such as onix or onyk are therefore incorrect.

Design your own gemstone jewelry: Drop strand, Onyx (dyed), 12 x 06mm
Hello! My name is Marco Schreier and I am the founder of the Mineralienhandlung GmbH of the same name. Creativity and stones have been a topic for me since I was a child, and they first shaped my free time and then my entire professional life.
As a child, this began playfully with collecting and crafting with stones I had found myself and with the first minerals that my grandfather brought me from the Alps. Later, a fascination for processing, sawing, grinding, designing and artistic work with gemstones emerged. With our Chili Creative ® brand, we managed to build up a range developed by experts from our wholesale business and our production sites in Asia.
Today, numerous professional jewelry designers, goldsmiths, jewelry makers, jewelers and creative people from the online world such as Etsy and Pinterest providers use the components of Chili Creative® in their projects. With our tools, stone components, bead strands, pearls and silver parts as well as high-quality stringing materials, you can create creative jewelry projects that are highly profitable for resale.
