The gemstone Sardonyx is the traditional Birthstone for August. It is also an alternate Zodiac stone for the constellations of Leo and Virgo. Sardonyx is a variety of cryptocrystalline quartz which displays alternate bands of Sard and Onyx (usually brown and white). It is often used to create bas-relief carvings where one layer is used as a foreground color, and the other a background.
