Before you choose
How to choose earrings
Weight decides comfort
Anything over 5 grams a side pulls by evening. Our drops are hollow-fabricated to stay light; studs sit under 2 grams.
Match the stone to your skin, in daylight
Warm stones, citrine, garnet, morganite, flatter warm undertones; blues and greys cool ones. Every pair ships with a 30-day daylight trial.
Studs first, drops second
If it is a first fine pair, studs get worn ten times more often. Drops earn their place after.
Check the back, not just the front
Friction posts loosen; ours are threaded or locking French wire. Ask how a pair closes before you buy it.
The short answer
Black onyx huggie earrings at Made With Color: one one of a kind work at $560, each built around a stone chosen loose, in daylight, in New York. Absolute matte black chalcedony, the quietest stone we set. Every stone ships with a passport naming origin, carat, cut, and any treatment in plain words. A small thick hoop that closes snug to the lobe, the earring equivalent of a favorite jacket.
About black onyx
Absolute matte black chalcedony, the quietest stone we set. We choose every stone loose, in daylight, and every work above carries a passport that says exactly what it is.
CHOOSING THE STYLE
On the style
12 to 14 mm hugs most lobes right. Thicker gauge reads more deliberate.
Start with hardness
Black onyx is 7 / 10 on the Mohs scale. For daily rings, choose a bezel or low prongs; for earrings and pendants, wear it freely.
Fit before beauty
Studs sit close and suit every day; drops move and suit evenings; hoops split the difference.
Then the look
Match the scale to the wearer. A 5 mm stone reads quiet, 8 mm reads deliberate.
Can you sleep in huggies?
Yes. They close flush, nothing protrudes, and the hinge is built for it. It is the style we recommend for ears that never want to be bare.
Is black onyx good for earrings?
Black onyx is 7 / 10 on the Mohs scale. Earrings live the easiest life of any jewel, so softer stones like opal and pearl are safe here.
Which birthstone is black onyx?
Black onyx is the None birthstone and the traditional stone of the 7th anniversary. We set it for both, and for no occasion at all.
Are these stones treated?
Untreated unless the passport says otherwise. When a stone of ours is heated or grown in a lab, the passport says so in that word, in the same type size as everything else, and the price reflects it.
How do these wear?
The one earring style safe to sleep in. Hinges are the wear point; ours are forged, not folded.
