Colombianite Pendant
This pendant features a beautiful piece of Colombianite, bezel set in Sterling Silver.
Colombianite, also known as Piedra Rayo, is an ancient form of Obsidian glass that closely resembles a Tektite. Piedra Rayo translates to “Lightning Stone '' and is believed to have been the “Cintamani Stone” from Sanskrit teachings and literature.
It is estimated that these stones are around 30 million years old, which is extremely unique for any type of Obsidian. Upon first glance, you may think that this is a solid, bold stone that is unable to be penetrated by light. However, shining a light through Colombianite will result in the black exterior being overwhelmed by a smoky or yellow transparent color that shines through.
