Sardius is another name for carnelian black onyx is black quartz, sardonyx is a mixture of both of these stones. Its usually reddish carnelian with black and white bands of onyx and quartz crystal. Your stone doesn't look like sardonyx.

You are correct, Sardius is the Old Testament Greek name for Carnelian, a deep reddish orange stone used in breastplates. I actually just acquired a sardonyx piece similar to what you’re describing. I love my crystal dealer and trust her implicitly and I do a lot of research before I make purchases of stones I’m not familiar with. Sardonyx comes in many different shades from white banded with black, brown, red or even further faded to orange chalcedony. Darker black or brown bands are formed hydrothermically when carbon is introduced instead of just iron oxide which created the reddish, rusty color of the stone as it grows in rock hollows. The piece I show is very unique, and I love it. Thanks for watching!
