Snowflake Obsidian Sphere
Description
This snowflake obsidian sphere features a deep black volcanic glass base scattered with soft grey “snowflake” patterns formed by natural crystallization. The contrast between the dark surface and pale inclusions gives the piece a graphic quality, while the polished spherical form highlights the stone’s organic patterning from every angle.
Snowflake obsidian is often associated with grounding and balance, helping to bring calm and clarity during periods of reflection or change. Its steady, anchoring presence makes it well suited for desks, shelves, or bedside tables.

Note
All crystals and ceramic works offered by Atelier Lithic are inherently unique. Variations in size, colour, surface texture, and form are natural and should be expected.
Crystals are natural materials formed in the earth and may include surface irregularities such as natural fissures, internal veils, growth marks, contact points from where the crystal was attached to the host rock, or areas where the specimen was mined or extracted. These features are part of the crystal’s natural formation and are not considered defects. Defects are disclosed within the item description.
For crystals:
- When a listing includes numbered options (for example, 001, 002, etc.), each number corresponds to a specific crystal shown in the photos. Selecting a number means you will receive that exact crystal.
- When a crystal is shown as a group or range and sold as a quantity of one without numbered options, the images represent examples of what is available. You will receive one crystal, selected from the group, with natural variation.
For ceramics:
- All ceramic pieces are one of a kind. Unless otherwise stated, you will receive the exact piece shown in the listing photos.
