Obsidian (Snowflake) – Rough

Snowflake Obsidian Specimens

Rough specimen pieces of Snowflake Obsidian, available in three sizes.

This dark volcanic glass has small grey spots which may look almost like snowflakes.

Obsidian itself is a relatively common volcanic glass, and is typically sold cut and polished, rather than rough. These pieces are intended for mineral collectors, and can be displayed alongside the carved or polished pieces.

Obsidian can be very sharp, because it is a type of glass. As these are rough pieces, which are sold ‘as found’, they may have sharp edges! Be careful when handling.
