RAINBOW OBSIDIAN 2 1/4″ 1-3 Oz Tumbler Polished Wire Wrap Necklace Rock Mineral Chakra Crystal Specimen

Description

NOTE: These have some crevasses that are not polished inside the natural crack in the stone.

Tumbler polished Davis Creek Rainbow Obsidian. Tumbled rainbow obsidian only shows color in parts of the rounded stone because the color grows in flat planes inside the stone.

You will receive one specimen from the lot shown in the photos and video that is 2 inch to 3 inch and weighs 1 to 3 ounces.

Rainbow obsidian will show some color when viewed inside with regular house light bulbs. To see all of the color you must take it out in the sunlight. Sunlight contains the full spectrum of light and will show much more color in the stone than house light bulbs which are not full spectrum light.

The rainbow obsidian deposits of Davis Creek, California are the “gemstones” of rainbow obsidian and world famous. In 2018, the US Forest Service shut down all mining at Davis Creek. The only way to get this material is if you are friends with “the guy” that was mining at Davis Creek for 40 years. He has a stockpile he mined before the location was shut down.

Mineral Description
Rainbow Obsidian usually looks quite black but when polished and exposed to a strong light, it shows bands of beautiful rainbow colors. The color layers are caused by refraction of microscopic bubbles and inclusions such as magnetite.

Obsidian is an igneous rock that forms when molten rock material cools so rapidly that atoms are unable to arrange themselves into a crystalline structure. It is an amorphous material known as a “mineraloid.” The result is a volcanic glass with a smooth uniform texture that breaks with a conchoidal fracture.

The colors are thought to be caused mainly by trace elements or inclusions. Occasionally two colors of obsidian will be swirled together in a single specimen. The most common color combination is black and brown obsidian swirled together – that’s called “mahogany obsidian”

The conchoidal fracture of obsidian causes it to break into pieces with curved surfaces. This type of fracturing can produce rock fragments with very sharp edges. These sharp fragments may have prompted the first use of obsidian by people to make knives and arrowheads.
