Black Obsidian Bracelet — Polished Glassy Beads

Obsidian is natural volcanic glass formed when lava cools very quickly. It polishes to a brilliant, glassy shine. At about 5 to 5.5 on the Mohs scale it is softer than quartz and can chip, so it should be worn with some care.

Tradition and meaning

In contemporary crystal practice, black obsidian is associated with grounding and protection. These associations belong to modern belief rather than classical Jyotish.

How to choose

Confirm that the beads are natural obsidian rather than black glass or dyed stone, along with the bead size and wrist size. A slight translucency at the edges under strong light is typical of obsidian.

Care

Obsidian can chip, so avoid knocks and store it separately. Wipe it with a soft cloth and remove it before bathing or exercise.
