Definition:
Obsidian forms when molten rock cools so quickly that it becomes glass instead of stone. Its surface is smooth and reflective, often catching light in a way that seems almost liquid. Historically, it has been used for tools, ornaments, and symbolic items meant to cut through illusion or darkness. The material holds a stark, striking beauty. Its jet-black depth gives it an aura of both danger and elegance.
