About the Black Obsidian Skull Bracelet

Wear it as a daily reminder of an intention. Polished obsidian was used for mirrors by the Aztecs; one such mirror, associated with the Elizabethan scholar John Dee, is in the British Museum.
Is the black obsidian in the Black Obsidian Skull Bracelet real?
Natural volcanic glass formed when lava cools very quickly. Each piece is natural, so colour and markings vary from the photo.

Many people cleanse crystals with moonlight, sound from a singing bowl, or smoke from sage or incense. A quick rinse is fine for this stone if you dry it straight away. These are rituals, not cleaning requirements.
