This natural Gold Sheen Obsidian moon cabochon features a deep black base with luminous golden sheen created by microscopic gas bubbles aligned during the rapid cooling of silica-rich volcanic lava. The curved moon shape enhances the stone’s reflective movement, allowing the golden sheen to shift beautifully under light.
Hand selected and hand cut in Mexico, these obsidian moon cabochons are chosen specifically for silversmithing and jewelry making. Each piece displays organic variations in sheen and pattern, making every cabochon truly one of a kind. The smooth polish and intentional crescent form make these stones ideal focal elements for bold, handcrafted designs.
Gold sheen obsidian has long been associated with grounding, protection, and self-reflection. Shaped into a moon which is a symbol of cycles, intuition, and transformation. These cabochons honour that legacy through thoughtful craftsmanship and ethical sourcing. No two pieces are ever alike. Each one is a small work of nature’s art, created for makers who value authenticity, story, and sourcing integrity.
