Sardonyx is a grounding and protective stone formed from layered bands of sard (a variety of chalcedony) and onyx. Typically found in shades of deep red, brown, black, and white, Sardonyx is a “Stone of Strength and Virtue.” Revered since ancient Rome for its protective power, it was often used in seals, cameos, and talismans for courage, willpower, and moral grounding. Sardonyx promotes stability, discipline, and spiritual integrity, making it a powerful ally for those walking a path of conscious growth, protection, and personal responsibility.
