Description
Black natural onyx teardrops hang from polished sterling silver in these modern drop earrings, a dark, glossy accent that still feels polished. The metal is solid sterling silver finished with rhodium, which gives a bright silver shine that sets off the deep black stone. Each earring pairs a teardrop onyx with an X shaped post, so the stone hangs below the lobe and moves as you turn your head. Post and push back closures hold each earring in place. Wear them with a white shirt or a little black dress. A thoughtful pick for a woman who loves black and silver.

Are onyx earrings real or treated?
Onyx is a natural stone, and most black onyx is dyed. Dyeing is a standard, long-accepted practice that gives the stone its deep, even black color. Heat and dye are the usual treatments for onyx in general. Black onyx sold today is commonly treated this way, so expect an even, glossy finish.
Should I choose studs, dangles, or threaders in onyx?
Studs suit everyday wear, while dangles add movement for evenings. This page includes simple studs, teardrop and bar dangles, and beaded threaders. Smaller sizes like 5.5mm or 6mm sit close to the ear. Longer drops, some over 20mm, make more of a statement. There are also non-pierced options.
What affects the price of onyx earrings?
Metal, size, and design drive the price most. Sterling silver, stainless steel, and 14K yellow or white gold sit at different levels. Larger stones, filigree or faceted detailing, and added materials like mother of pearl also matter. Use the Price filter on this page to set a budget.
Which onyx earring styles are most popular?
Teardrop and oval dangles lead the list. Stud dangles in 14K yellow and white gold, plus geometric and rectangle shapes, also rank near the top. Sterling silver styles follow, including filigree, twisted, and beaded threader designs. For a metal-focused view, browse yellow gold onyx jewelry.
