Black Obsidian Pencil Point Assorted Crystal with Cap Pendants

Black Obsidian Pencil Point Assorted Crystal with Cap Pendants (shop SKU VOGP) is a pendant on the shelves at Namaste Bookshop in Manhattan.

Obsidian is natural volcanic glass, usually black, that breaks with smooth, curved edges. In crystal traditions, obsidian is associated with protection and with seeing clearly. Those ideas belong to folklore and personal practice, not to any medical claim.

Because the material is natural, its color and pattern vary from piece to piece. Store jewelry dry and away from lotions, perfume, and harsh cleaners to keep it looking its best.
