AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Mahogany obsidian is a special variant of obsidian, a natural volcanic glass formed by the rapid cooling of lava. What makes mahogany obsidian unique is its rich, dark color with warm, mahogany-like shades of brown and red. This variety often has a glossy surface and can also display iridescent effects when light hits it, giving it a striking appearance.

The origin of mahogany obsidian mainly lies in volcanic areas where lava eruptions occurred. Major deposits include the United States, particularly in regions such as Oregon and Arizona, but other countries like Mexico and Italy can also produce mahogany obsidian.

Mahogany obsidian is often used for making jewelry, figurines, and decorative objects, where its unique color and shine are well showcased. It is also valued in gemstone therapy for its purported energetic properties. The combination of aesthetic appeal and rarity makes mahogany obsidian a sought-after choice for both collectors and jewelers.

It will be sent by insured and registered mail.
