This black onyx necklace with garnet is named for Vlad Dracula. The coffin-shaped black onyx set on the upturned crescent moon reminds me subtly of a bat. The juicy red Mozambique garnet is framed with fine silver pebbles. The pendant hangs from an oxidized sterling chain.
Vlad Dracula, or Vlad the Impaler, was a ruler in what is now Romania back in the 15th century, and is now legendary in his cruelty. He's probably best known now because he's popularly linked to the Transylvanian vampire lore that inspired Bram Stoker's Dracula.
