Guang Dong Obsidian – Volcanic Glass from Southern China

Obsidian from the Guang Dong Province in southern China is an example of authentic volcanic glass with a simple natural form and high collector’s value. This type of obsidian typically originates from volcanic rocks in southeastern China and features a dark, naturally glossy surface with a distinct structure.

Appearance and Properties

This obsidian is characterized by a typical black to dark gray color, sometimes showing a subtle sheen or internal texture that reflects the process of melting and cooling.

Origin and Locality

The Guang Dong Province, located in southern China, provides geological conditions ideal for the formation of obsidian — volcanic activity, lava flows, and rapid cooling of molten rock. Exact deposits are not commonly accessible, which adds to the rarity of available specimens.

Use

This obsidian is valued by collectors as well as artisans and jewelers. Its deep black color and volcanic origin make it popular for crafting jewelry, decorative items, or as a unique geological specimen. Each piece represents a fragment of the geological history of southeastern China.
