Obsidian has been used as a gemstone since antiquity. Imagine a fine piece of mahogany furniture that gleams like glass--that's mahogany obsidian. Obsidian is a naturally occurring volcanic glass that's created when lava rich in feldspar and quartz is cooled too rapidly for crystals to form. It's not considered to be a true mineral because its composition is too complex and it doesn't have a crystalline structure.
In addition to its decorative use, obsidian has been used to make smooth and sharp surgical blades and arrowheads due to its lack of cleavage and acute edges when broken. Stone Age people used obsidian for weapons and implements, Native Americans formed it into arrowheads and the Incans used it for weapons, mirrors and masks.
Obsidian is named after Obsuis, a Roman who discovered a similar stone. Mahogany obsidian is a variety of obsidian that shows banding of black and red colors created from iron inclusions.

Care Instructions
Care Instructions
Your new wire wrapped creation requires special care. Gemstones vary in hardness and can chip or crack in unusual circumstances, so be sure to protect them from roughness or impact.
Many of the items in my shop are oxidized to create an antiqued appearance and to highlight intricate weaving patterns. It is also natural for the metals to oxidize (darken) over time. Most pieces that have been left bright can be antiqued upon request.
Avoid swimming, bathing or excessive sweating while wearing your jewelry. Store it in a dry place out of direct sunlight.
Yours jewelry can be gently polished from time to time with a jewelry polishing cloth. If the patina has darkened significantly, you may scrub the piece gently with very fine steel wool.
