Obsidian is a volcanic rock that cools very rapidly from silica-rich lava to form volcanic glass. Volcanic glass can vary in color; however, it is commonly a solid black color. Because of its conchoidal fracture, obsidian has been used since the Stone Age for tools, weapons, and as an ornamental material. This particular crushed obsidian is from Mexico and is very clean and free of impurities.

Our powdered material consists of mostly silt and clay sized particles. Our powders do have a slight grit to them. Please see the corresponding sediment size chart.

Let me start off with saying this shop is ☆fantastic☆. I had questions about quantity made from different stones as I needed a specific volume as opposed to weight, and the seller was superb! She was responsive, kind, and just a treat to work with overall. Every order I placed was over the amount ordered, which I appreciate very much! High quality, wonderful owner - buy here!
