Newton's Apple - Onyx

Sir Isaac Newton, having discovered gravity on seeing an apple fall, would sensibly use this apple for a paperweight instead. Hand-carved in beautifully grained onyx, this solid little apple has a brass stem. With the aid of gravity, it will keep your papers safely in place. Onyx is a semiprecious translucent stone with color ranging from white to deep greens and browns.
