The rounded form works particularly well with Silver Sheen Obsidian, allowing the light to travel across the curves and reveal sweeping areas of silver beneath the darker surface.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSilver Sheen Obsidian is a natural volcanic glass formed when silica-rich lava cools rapidly, without sufficient time for a conventional crystalline structure to develop. Its distinctive sheen is created by microscopic structures within the Obsidian that interact with light. Depending on the angle, a carving that initially appears almost black can suddenly reveal broad silver-grey reflections moving across its surface.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCats have carried rich symbolism across cultures for thousands of years and are commonly associated with independence, intuition, awareness and protection.
