Both gemstones are my first experience with Snowflake Obsidian, and they're prettier than I expected. Actually, I think the 'snowflakes' look more like flowers!

About This Snowflake Obsidian

Snowflake Obsidian is part of the volcanic glass family.

This piece comes from Utah, United States.

Named after Obsius, a Roman who reportedly first found it in Ethiopia.

Traditionally Used For

Snowflake obsidian has long been used in practices around 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, hold one in your non-dominant hand for a few breaths when things feel shaky. There's no single right way to carry it.

These are traditional associations drawn from historical practice. This stone is not a substitute for medical or mental health care.

Care and Use

Sensitivity Moderate

Snowflake Obsidian sits at 5-5.5 on the Mohs scale, soft enough to scratch with a knife, so store it on its own. A quick rinse is fine, but do not let it soak or sit in water. Keep chemical cleaners away from it; they can etch the surface.

Do

  • Wipe Dry
  • Quick Rinse Only
  • Store Protected
  • Gentle Soap Only
  • Stable Room Temperature

Avoid

Will I get the exact pieces in the photos?

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 have their own product pages and say so.

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.
