    Representative material visualization · Appearance may vary

    Black Obsidian is a natural material selected for its slate visual character. Surface, color and pattern can vary with the cut, finish and individual piece; the product photographs and measurements describe the item you will receive.

    In this piece: a raw, untreated black obsidian, about 6 to 10 millimeters long and 5 to 8 millimeters wide, as the main stone.

    What does black obsidian symbolize?

    In crystal and jewelry traditions, black obsidian is associated with reflection, intention and personal style. These meanings are cultural and personal; they are not medical benefits or promises.

    Will every black obsidian piece look the same?

    No. Variation can come from the material, cut, finish and lighting. Use the individual product photographs and measurements to judge the piece you will receive.

    How should I care for it?

    Keep finished jewelry away from hard impacts, harsh chemicals and abrasive cleaners. Follow the product-specific care instructions, including those for metal finishes and other components.

    • 925 silver

    • Gentle care

    Representative material visualization · Appearance may vary

    Sterling silver is a silver alloy used in jewelry. Its bright, cool-toned surface can develop a natural patina with wear and exposure. The visible finish may also be plated, so always check the metal option for the individual piece.

    In this piece: 925 sterling silver, or 18kt gold vermeil over sterling silver, for the ring setting and band.

    Is sterling silver the same as a silver-colored finish?

    No. A silver-colored appearance alone does not establish metal content. Use the product's confirmed material specification; never identify sterling silver from its color or a reference photograph.

    Can sterling silver have a gold-colored finish?

    Yes. A gold layer can be applied over a sterling-silver base. In a vermeil option, the base metal and surface finish should both be stated; it must not be described as solid gold.

    How should I care for the finish?

    Store jewelry dry and separately, avoid cosmetics and household chemicals, and use a soft cloth. Follow the product's own care instructions before using silver cleaner, especially when stones, thread or gold plating are present.

    Trace raw black obsidian ring

    Small, raw and steady

    A slim band holding a raw black obsidian

    A raw, untreated black obsidian of about 6 to 10 millimeters long in a slim, everyday ring.

    Trace holds a raw, untreated black obsidian at the front of a slim band. The stone is left in its natural shape, so its edges are uneven and its glossy surface shows the way volcanic glass forms in the earth.

    The stone measures about 6 to 10 millimeters long and 5 to 8 millimeters wide, and weighs about 3.45 carats. Its small size keeps the ring light and neat, and it sits easily beside other rings.

    Trace comes in sterling silver, yellow gold vermeil or rose gold vermeil. It suits everyday wear, from a day at the desk to an evening out, and it pairs well with knitwear and simple shirts.

    Light and easy

    A light ring that sits neatly on the finger

    About 1.30 grams of metal in sizes 5 through 10.

    The ring weighs about 1.30 grams of metal, so it feels light on the finger and does not catch on sleeves or gloves. The slim band lies flat and keeps the raw stone close to the knuckle.

    Yellow gold vermeil adds a warm frame, rose gold vermeil brings a soft blush, and sterling silver keeps the stone cool and crisp. The ring is made in sizes 5 through 10.

    The meaning of strength

    Black obsidian is often associated with strength and resilience, the steady inner resolve that helps a person keep going through a demanding stretch. A small raw stone on a slim band is a quiet way to carry that idea, so Trace suits anyone who values an understated piece they can wear every day. The meaning is yours to choose, and the ring makes no promise of a particular result.

    Some people wear a small obsidian ring as a daily reminder to stay steady. Others give one to a friend who has taken on a new challenge and wants something simple to wear.

    Choosing your size

    Sizes run from 5 to 10. Measure a ring you already wear that fits well, or wrap a strip of paper around the base of the finger, mark the overlap and compare the length with a size chart.

    Because the stone is raw, check that the ring sits flat and does not rock when your hand is relaxed. If you are between sizes, choose the one that moves over the knuckle with slight resistance.

    Caring for the raw stone and finish

    Black obsidian can chip under hard knocks, and lotion, perfume, sweat and chlorine can dull its gloss and the vermeil. Remove the ring before cleaning, gardening, swimming, exercise and sleep.

    After wear, wipe the ring with a soft dry cloth and store it in a separate pouch. Keeping it apart from harder jewelry protects the raw edges and the finish.

    Find your metal tone

    Three finishes for the same raw black obsidian ring. Choose yellow gold vermeil for warmth, rose gold vermeil for a soft blush or sterling silver for a cool line.

    Frequently asked questions

    Is the black obsidian natural?

    Yes. Black obsidian is a natural volcanic glass, and this stone is raw and untreated, so its edges and surface are left as they formed.

    What ring sizes are available?

    Sizes 5 through 10 are available. Measure your finger before you order.

    Is this ring in stock now?

    The ring is sold as a standard item. Check the product page for the delivery estimate shown there before you order.

    Are the finishes solid gold?

    No. The gold finishes are 18kt gold vermeil over sterling silver, thin gold layers rather than solid gold.

    Does the ring promise any effect?

    No. Black obsidian is often associated with strength and resilience, and those meanings are yours to choose. The ring makes no promise of a particular outcome.

    Can I wear it in the shower or pool?

    Please remove it before swimming, showering or exercise. Water, lotion and chlorine can dull the vermeil and the raw stone.

    How should I clean it?

    Wipe gently with a soft dry cloth. Avoid harsh polishes and ultrasonic cleaners, which can damage the raw edges and the vermeil.

    Is this ring a good everyday piece?

    Its slim band and small raw stone suit daily wear, and the ring sits neatly beside other rings. It makes no promise of a particular outcome.
