Obsidian

Obsidian is a naturally occurring volcanic glass that is formed when lava cools rapidly. It is usually black or dark brown in color and has a shiny, glass-like appearance. Obsidian has been used for thousands of years by humans for making weapons, tools, and jewelry due to its sharp edges and smooth texture. It is also a popular gemstone used in ornamental objects such as sculptures and figurines. Obsidian is believed to have strong protective properties and is often used in spiritual and energy healing practices to help with grounding and cleansing negative energies. It is found in many parts of the world, including the United States, Mexico, and Japan. Due to its sharp edges, obsidian should be handled with care and respect.
