Obsidian is a volcanic rock rich in silica. Different types of obsidian exist, differing due to the chemical composition of the rock. Obsidian is actually a natural glass, formed during an eruption of silica-rich lava with less than 3% water. Upon exiting the volcano, it undergoes very rapid cooling, freezing the crystallization process.
This can be compared to a piece of lava suddenly solidified as it emerges from the volcano. The direct consequence of this phenomenon is the rock's inability to crystallize. The result is the creation of a volcanic glass with a uniform texture, which is described as an amorphous mineral. Furthermore, obsidian has sharp edges and very fine blades. It is a natural mineral with a complex composition.
Thus, obsidian is composed mainly of silicon dioxide, about 70% or more. Its fracture is conchoidal (i.e., grooved with curved and concentric striae) and its hardness is 5 to 5.5 on the Mohs scale. It has different colors and reflections due to the volcano where it was discovered and its various inclusions. It should be noted that each deposit, linked to a volcano, provides a different obsidian.
Green, brown, gray, or black, it can have reflections that are sometimes golden, silvery, or even all the colors of the rainbow (an effect produced by the presence of hematites or magnetites). Sometimes, two colors of obsidian can also mix.
Celestial eye obsidian is also called rainbow obsidian. It is a black obsidian with colored zones ranging from violet to green.
Celestial eye obsidian is the result of a rare phenomenon: the contact of lava with water, when the lava flows into a lake or ocean. The thermal shock then causes a vitreous texture. Thus, the trapped iron and magnesium create a mixture of rainbow colors.
Celestial eye obsidian is a natural glass. This volcanic stone has solidified into a layer up to 40 cm thick. When the stone is cut into a spherical shape, the reflections represent concentric circles that evoke eyes. In the United States, it is preferred to be called rainbow obsidian due to its multiple colors.
When nanoparticles of elements (feldspar, hedenbergite, magnetite, etc.) are deposited in layers, an optical effect occurs. Light penetrating the obsidian becomes trapped in the natural glass. A rainbow effect is produced, giving the stone its soft colors. An eye shape is observed when the stone is polished.
