Black Tourmaline vs Onyx

Protection stones compared

Both are classic protection stones, but with slightly different traditional uses.

Black Tourmaline

Saturn-ruled, traditionally the strongest grounding and protection stone in Vedic use — associated with clearing negative energy and everyday psychic protection. Available as a bracelet.

Black Onyx

Also Saturn-ruled and grounding, traditionally linked to protection from black magic and negative influence. Currently available from MantraMani as a raw stone and pendant, not yet a bracelet.

Which to choose

Both work similarly for general protection. Black Tourmaline is the better fit if you specifically want a bracelet; Black Onyx if a pendant suits your style better.
