Location
York, UK
Discover the awe-inspiring elegance of Peanut Obsidian, a gemstone forged in the heart of volcanic activity and crafted by nature over millennia. This extraordinary amorphous glass is a product of explosive volcanic eruptions, where molten lava cooled rapidly to create its glossy black base.
It’s striking orange-red spherical inclusions—are the result of embedded feldspar crystals, stained by a coating of Haematite over time. Not just beautiful—it is also exceptionally scarce. Classified as a rare variety of Perlite, it has been found only in a single location: Alamos, Sonora, Mexico. Since its discovery in the 1960s, no other deposit of this mineral has ever been identified, making it a gemstone of unparalleled exclusivity.
More than a marvel of nature; it is also a stone of mystical connection. Its grounding vibrations foster a deep connection to Mother Earth, helping to root the wearer in the physical realm while encouraging consciousness to expand and grow. The feldspar and Hematite inclusions within this mineral are thought to activate creative thinking and engage personal willpower, making it a powerful companion for those seeking inspiration and inner strength.
