Over the years, I have spent countless hours holding and observing obsidian pieces, noticing how light dances on their smooth surfaces and how each fragment seems to carry its own quiet energy. Walking along volcanic fields and finding naturally formed obsidian has been a humbling experience—there's a raw, grounding quality to these stones that makes me pause and reflect. I often find that simply having a piece nearby during quiet moments fosters a sense of focus and calm, connecting me to both the earth's dynamic history and the present moment.
