Onyx is black and white banded agate
(cryptocrystalline or chalcedony quartz). It should not to be confused with
onyx marble, which is limestone. The banding of onyx is parallel and
consistent. Some varieties of onyx differ in color, such as sard onyx, which
has a brown base and white upper layer, cornelian onyx, which has a red base
and white upper layer, and niccolo onyx, which has a very thin upper layer,
allowing the black base color to show through as grey or blue.
The Romans admired moonstone and believed that it came from the rays of the moon made solid. Moonstones have been used as jewels for hundreds of years. They were admired by the ancient Romans and Greeks, and then were used in Art Nouveau jewelry. Moonstones later became popular during the hippie movement of the 1960s and the contemporary New Age spiritual movement
