What's the difference between black agate and onyx?

By Matt O. -
A semiprecious variety of chalcedony quartz that is a used often in jewelry. When chalcedony is variegated with spots or figures, or arranged in differently colored layers, it is called agate; and if by reason of the thickness, color, and arrangement of the layers it is suitable for being carved into cameos, it is called onyx.  From a mineral or chemical standpoint they are almost identical, and from a fashion jewelry standpoint they are both great stones for pendants, rings, bracelets, and earrings.
