Mario has three reviews so far since 2018 and that is way too few for a shop such as Onyx for Jewelry and other accessories. I have shopped in the Jewelry district of NYC and have seen the best there. But for the items that Onyx specializes in, primarily southwest and others, Mario knows his stuff. He collects terrific pieces and one of a kind items as well. We bought a beautiful hummingbird necklace with nice stones in it. Quality was terrific and if Mario wants a sale and will work with you. (See humorous pic as he also has a sense of humor). Next time you are in the Santa Fe area stop by and see Mario at Onyx and just capture with your eyes the intriguing ie,s on display. Heck even if you are in Albuquerque it is worth the one hour drive. You will definitely find a piece you will want to take and wear. I know if you have something in ,ind and have a photo or drawing of something you want, Mario can get it done. His son, Isaac, is now in the business so that is a good sign next generation will be around for some time to come. Very pleased and glad I stopped by....

Dear ONYX Team,
I admire your dedication to authentic Native American jewelry and the artistry behind every piece. While your store has strong roots, I noticed some challenges that may be holding back growth, such as frequent “out of stock” items, a website design that limits product discovery, and minimal storytelling about your artists and cultural heritage.
As an expert in artisan and luxury e-commerce, I can help ONYX:
Improve inventory visibility and customer engagement,
Modernize your website for easier browsing,
Enrich product pages with artisan stories and cultural context,
Strengthen SEO and local visibility to attract more buyers.
I’d love to discuss how we can enhance your online presence while honoring the authenticity of your brand.
Best...
Read moreOf all the jewelry stores in Santa Fe, Onyx is the shining star. Their selection and prices set them apart, and their customer service is beyond compare. Their beautiful display windows pulled us in to this family run business, and shopping with them was a delightful experience. Mario and Neti are knowledgeable about the artists and stones they represent, so when you buy a piece from them, you get the back story and history, which makes it super special. Plus, they can handle sizing in a matter of hours. This is a “can’t miss”...
