These are AA-grade Snowflake Obsidian tumbled stones from Utah, United States, sold by the piece or by the pound. The gray snowflakes are cristobalite crystals that formed as the black volcanic glass cooled slowly underground. Each piece runs 1.50 to 2 inches at Mohs 5-5.5, fully natural and untreated. This is the largest tumbled size we carry. A favorite grounding stone for palm work.
Snowflake Obsidian is part of the volcanic glass family. Named after Obsius, a Roman who reportedly first found it in Ethiopia.
Sourced directly from Utah, United States.
At 1.50 to 2 inches these are the largest tumbled pieces we carry, which gives the snowflake patterning room to read from across a room.
Those who work with snowflake obsidian often turn to it for staying connected to your body and the moment, working through difficult feelings at your own pace, and a sense of groundedness when things feel uncertain. It's traditionally linked to the root and crown chakras. If that resonates, set one on the floor near where you sit to read or work. How you use it is up to you.
These are traditional associations drawn from historical practice. This stone is not a substitute for medical or mental health care.
Offered as a starting point for your own practice.
Snowflake Obsidian sits at 5-5.5 on the Mohs scale, soft enough to scratch with a knife, so keep it dry and store it on its own. Keep chemical cleaners away from it; they can etch the surface.
You'll receive pieces from the same batch photographed, weighed to the amount you choose. Every piece passes our quality control and meets or exceeds what you see in the photos. Single specimens are listed separately and say so.
Each piece measures 1.5 to 2 inches on its longest side and weighs 20 to 40 grams. About 16 to 24 pieces per pound at this size, and each option shows its piece count.
Grades reflect visual quality within a batch. A is standard, with typical inclusions. AA shows stronger color, cleaner surfaces and tighter sizing. AAA is the top 10 to 15 percent of a batch. Every lot is inspected and graded by our team in Rockville, Maryland, not taken on the supplier’s word.
This lot is from Utah, United States. It came to us through a direct source, one of the sourcing models we publish and stand behind.
Every lot is inspected and graded by our expert team before it is listed, not taken on the supplier's word. AA on this listing means stronger color, cleaner surfaces and tighter sizing than the batch average. Pieces that miss the mark never reach the shop.
How We GradeWe work directly with the mine or workshop, with no intermediaries in between. The relationship is personal, pricing is transparent, and we can speak to each batch. We say what we know and where our tracing stops.
Our Sourcing StandardsEverything we sell is natural in origin: never synthetic, never dyed, never coated. Where a stone has been heated, irradiated or stabilized, which is common in the trade for some species, we say so on the listing. If a piece is not as described, return it within 90 days of delivery.
