About the Item

A beautiful paper weight made of Black Onyx. The piece rests on a sterling stand with three lions paws. The stunning piece is a compliment to any space, side table, desk or work station as a decorative piece or a paperweight. We love the addition of the paw foot stand. Black onyx is a gemstone that is said to have many properties, including: Stabilizing: Some believe that black onyx can stabilize the mind and energy field, preventing negative energy from taking over. Healing: Black onyx is said to help heal emotional wounds and past traumas. Protective: Black onyx is thought to have protective qualities, making it a good stone to carry when traveling. Courage: The Romans associated onyx with courage, and it is thought to help defend against unfair criticism. Mental clarity: Black onyx is said to improve mental clarity, concentration, and direction. Inner strength: Black onyx is believed to have the ability to build inner strength and connect to courage. Reducing anxiety: Black onyx is said to help reduce pressure, anxiety, and fear. Birthstone: Black onyx is the birthstone for the zodiac signs Leo and Capricorn.
