About the Stone:
Purple banded onyx is a fascinating natural stone known for its distinctive layers and beautiful coloration, ranging from deep purples to lighter, more translucent bands. Onyx itself is a type of chalcedony, which is a microcrystalline quartz. The banding seen in this stone is formed through a process of silica deposition in cavities of igneous rock, creating the unique parallel layers. While onyx is found in various locations worldwide, purple banded onyx is often sourced from regions like Mexico, Uruguay, and Argentina, where geological conditions allow for the formation of these exquisite colors and patterns. Each stone is truly unique, showcasing nature's artistry.
