Its characteristics and appearance, as well as its widespread distribution, have made it famous since antiquity and have led to its use in rituals and ornamentation. Obsidian, along with flint, is known as \"the warrior's rocks.\" Rainbow obsidian owes its iridescent colors to the presence of microbubbles of water trapped during its formation. In certain Stone Age cultures and early civilizations, it was highly valued because it could be used to make very sharp blades. Mesoamerican cultures used obsidian to make tools, ornaments, and weapons. The Egyptians considered it a powerful talisman and made amulets from it, sculpted in the shape of scarabs (their sacred animal), which they placed in the tombs of the deceased to ease their passage to the afterlife.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOrigin: Mexico.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e Properties: Cuts the ties of old love relationships and gently releases the attachments of the heart.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e Sign: Sagittarius\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rocas\u0026Cristales","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52535953129772,"sku":"DOBSINEGTALLA7039","price":379382.0,"currency_code":"ARS","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0951\/9009\/0028\/files\/dije-talla-de-kuan-yin-en-obsidiana-negra-dijes-7267178.jpg?v=1775147827","url":"https:\/\/rocasycristales.com\/en\/products\/dije-talla-de-kuan-yin-en-obsidiana-negra-561","provider":"Rocas\u0026Cristales","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
