Gold sheen obsidian is pure drama, and she shines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eObsidian is born of fire. It forms when lava cools so fast it never has time to crystallize, leaving behind natural glass. That golden glow comes from tiny gas bubbles and microscopic mineral inclusions, usually hematite and magnetite, that lined up in layers as the lava flowed, frozen mid-motion forever. Humans have been obsessed with obsidian since the Stone Age. It was chipped into razor-sharp tools in the ancient Near East and made into blades and weapons throughout the Americas, and it's so sharp that some surgical scalpels are still made from it today. Every volcano gives its obsidian a unique chemical fingerprint, so archaeologists can trace ancient pieces back to their source and map trade routes thousands of years old.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGold sheen obsidian is a stone of reflection, and we don't just mean the shiny kind. It's prized for scrying, and it's said to hold up a mirror to your inner self. It's believed to help you see what needs healing, let go of ego, and dig into some real self-understanding. (Shadow work, but make it sparkly.) It's linked mainly to the root chakra for grounding and protection, with ties to the solar plexus and third eye, and it's associated with Sagittarius. Wear it when you're ready to look within, set some boundaries, or simply be the most mysterious person in the room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's set in stainless steel, so it's tough and low-maintenance, and ready for whatever adventure you take it on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e**Details**\u003cbr\u003e- Stone: Gold sheen obsidian\u003cbr\u003e- Stone size: 1.6\"\u003cbr\u003e- Metal: Stainless steel\u003cbr\u003e- Pendant only; chain not included\u003cbr\u003e- Care: Obsidian is volcanic glass and can chip if it's dropped or knocked, so remove it before physical activity and store it separately.
