Obsidian is a volcanic rock glass known since ancient times. According to Pliny, its name is derived from a Roman named Obsius, who is said to have found the stone for the first time in Ethiopia. Depending on their appearance and properties, obsidians are called different names, e.g. lamellar obsidian or smoky obsidian ("Apache tears"). +++ Chili Creative Tip: Combine different Obsidians effectively to a gemstone necklace, complemented with intermediate parts in silver or silver gold plated. +++ The Obsidians strands are approx. 38 - 40cm long, if not stated otherwise on the individual model.
