Obsidian alias volcanic glass. Obsidians are formed uniquely – during a rapid, hot lava cooling, 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.

Stones´s uniqueness: Spider obsidian catches one’s eye with its remarkable structure, resembling a spider’s web, giving the stone its name. The black spider’s web weaves around the dark green matrix of the stone, creating a beautiful design.

Special conditions/ treatment: Obsidian is stable against most acids. However, be careful when handling with the stone, as it is fragile.

About the product: The product is packed in firm plastic bags.
