What does sterling ESPO mean on jewelry?
ESPO is for the jewelry-making family of Joseph Esposito. If it also has "SIG" for signature, this is specifically for the latest generation Joseph Esposito. Otherwise, it's likely for an earlier generation, as old as 1910, when the family first opened their business. A previous reviewer said the 1950s. That may have been when one of the Espositos was born but was not when the business opened. To determine its age, I suggest a vintage/antique jewelry specialist. The older marks also look just that. Older. Usually, a lot more wear and an irregular stamp, as if made by hand. I know these things because I've researched and sold many of both the older and newer. You can find more details on the Esposito history in an online search.
Onyx is a form or silicon dioxide (SiO2), and it is a "flavor" of quartz. It has a Mohs scale hardness of 7, and it is naturally brittle, like other forms of quartz. The hardness contributes to its strength, but it is at the same time a source of its weakness as brittle materials are subject to breakage. It can be worked and will take a high polish because it is quite hard. A link can be found below.
