Obsidian Black
Obsidian, or volcanic glass, is a material with a unique formation, during which hot lava cools rapidly, e.g. in water or on the Earth’s surface. The process is so fast that the individual minerals do not have enough time to crystalize. This piece is from Mexico.
Black Obsidian uniqueness: Black obsidian forms rounded pebbles of volcanic glass, which are “trapped” inside its soft, glassy perlite parent rock. You can recognise it for its intense black colour.
Use: Our rough stones are a beautiful interior adornment – filling up a vase, fountain or a lamp with them creates an original design. In the exterior, they may be a perfect decoration of gardens. They are also suitable for mineralogist collections and exhibitions. Rough minerals may also be further processed, e.g. small crystals are ideal material for pendants.
Package weight: 1, 2 and 25 kg
About the product: To retain the standard colour and quality of the minerals, we carefully pick the best pieces and thoroughly clean them. The minerals are sold in 1 and 2 kg bags, but we also offer a 25 kg package (carton box) for an advantageous price. The categories differ in sizes of the stones; a 1 kg bag is usually available with stone sizes from Chips to XXL and a 2 kg bag with sizes XL and XXL.
