I absolutely love it. So silvery and sheeny, and with a tremendous amount of obsidianism. It has an elegant, sophisticated energy that’s quite excellent, and also significant seeing-stone vibes.

Supply Chain for Silver Sheen Obsidian

This Silver Sheen Obsidian comes from artisanal miners in Mexico.  The deposit is worked by a variety of independent miners who sell as a co-op.  The mine has a low environmental impact and is relatively safe for miners.

This mine and lapidary is a family business in Guadalajara, Mexico. The father has been an Obsidian miner all his life, and his son runs a lapidary that specializes in polished Obsidian. Factory workers have safe conditions and are paid fairly. The business is also the exporter and sells at large gem shows in the Western United States.

I originally had fancy Obsidian from another source with more middlemen involved. I connected directly with my current source at the 2019 Denver Gem Show. They work exclusively in Obsidian, both pure black and rarer varieties such as Rainbow Obsidian, Gold Sheen and Silver Sheen. I learned that the father had been mining Obsidian his whole life and that when his children became adults, they decided to start a polishing factory and export it to the US. Their stock is exquisite, both the quality of the stone and the polishing techniques. I am very happy to do business with them.

    The crystal is lovely, with an ever-so-subtle sheen in the light. Julie was so thoughtful in selecting a worry stone, and the size and shape of this one are so satisfying to hold and handle. Shipping was surprisingly quick! (Earbuds in photo for scale)

    When this big, beautiful Silver Sheen Obsidian came out of its packaging I felt pure joy. What beauty and presence it has! The silvery sheen is as bright as it looks in the photo, and one particular bubble, a little bigger, sparkles like a star in the night sky. For me, it wears more comfortably than most Obsidians. That is, I can carry it all day without it becoming too much and I slept soundly with it in the pillow case the other night with dreams of starry skies.
