Description
This rainbow obsidian heart is a spectacular piece! All rainbow obsidian tends to look slick black under normal lighting conditions. When lit up more directly, green, purple, and/or blue bands become apparent in better quality specimens. This colorful banding comes from a specific kind of crystallization that occurs as it is forming. We only have this one piece. Make this beauty yours today! It would also make a thoughtful gift.
The stand is included.
Size: Approx. 3.25″ across, 184g
A Little More About Rainbow Obsidian
Rainbow obsidian is formed when molten lava cools rapidly, creating a glassy texture. The unique colors in rainbow obsidian are caused by inclusions of hedenbergite nanoparticles within the volcanic glass. These inclusions refract light, producing the stunning rainbow effect. The crystalline structure of rainbow obsidian gives it a smooth, polished appearance that enhances its beauty and allure.
