Obsidiana Copo de Nieve Mediano

Snowflake Obsidian is a beautiful protective stone associated with grounding, balance, spiritual cleansing, and personal transformation. Its deep black surface is scattered with distinctive grey-white patterns resembling delicate snowflakes, making each stone unique.

A naturally occurring volcanic glass, Snowflake Obsidian develops its characteristic markings from clusters of cristobalite crystals formed within the cooling glass. It is found in volcanic regions, including Mexico and the United States.
