🌙 Metaphysical Properties:
Rainbow Obsidian is believed to be a powerful protective and grounding stone. It is said to absorb negative energy and transform it into light, helping to release emotional blockages and reveal one’s inner strength. The shifting colors symbolize hope, renewal, and emotional healing — a reminder that beauty and light often emerge from darkness.

🔍 Stone Description:
Old stock polished Rainbow Obsidian from Davis Creek, California — a highly sought-after volcanic glass known for its colorful iridescent sheen. This specimen displays beautiful rainbow bands that shift in the light, a signature of the famous Davis Creek locality. Collected from an old stock collection, this piece represents classic, high-quality material rarely seen today.

📌 Highlights:

Color Palette:
Shimmering bands of purple, green, gold, and magenta on a deep black base that changes color with angle and lighting.

Patterns:
Concentric color rings and flowing chatoyant layers revealed through expert polishing.

Hardness:
Approx. 5–5.5 on Mohs scale

Location:
Davis Creek, Modoc County, California, USA

Formation:
Formed from volcanic lava that cooled rapidly, trapping layers of microscopic mineral inclusions that refract light into rainbow-like colors.

Rarity:
True Davis Creek Rainbow Obsidian is increasingly rare, as mining has been limited for many years and most material on the market today is from older collections. Old stock pieces with strong color banding and high polish are especially collectible and valuable.
