As Obsidian can cleave easily into flakes of ultra-sharp glass, this stone is not recommended for anklets, rings, bracelets or other jewelry uses which are likely to take impact. Remove Obsidian jewelry before engaging in physical activity.

Obsidian is a naturally occurring volcanic glass formed in swiftly cooling lava that has a high silica content. It is not considered a true mineral, as it does not have an entirely consistent chemical content and it does not form crystals.

Color in Obsidian varies, depending on impurities in the parent lava formation. The formation of Golden Sheen Obsidian occurs when molten lava becomes rapidly cooled, forming a hard brittle glassy material composed mostly of silicon dioxide minerals. During the process, small amounts of gas become trapped in the mineral matrix and these create tiny silver bubbles.

Obsidian has a conchoidal fracture pattern due to its rapid cooling, making it easy to split and flake into pieces with curved surfaces that have very sharp edges. Newly split pieces of Obsidian have an extremely high luster. Obsidian is considered an extrusive rock because it usually forms above the earth's surface as a result of coming into contact with cold air or water.

Golden Sheen Obsidian is believed, by crystal practitioners, to be particularly suitable for scrying. It is also thought to be ideal for balancing energy fields and releasing the ego. The reflective nature of obsidian makes it one of the first stones used in self-reflective meditation, internal growth and self-understanding. The stone is not thought to give energy, but to help seekers discover where healing needs to happen.

Golden Sheen Obsidian is affiliated with the root chakra, though it is said to have applications to the solar plexus and third eye chakras. It is assigned to the western astrological sign Sagittarius.

A mid-range stone in terms of overall hardness, Golden Sheen Obsidian cleaves easily. Therefore, avoid using ultrasonic or steam cleaners with it. Use warm soapy water and a soft cotton cloth to wipe down Golden Sheen Obsidian, and remove any traces of body oils or perspiration. Store separately in a box or padded bag to prevent damage.
