Hi! First of all, sorry for my bad english - its not my first language, and im rarely speaking in it. Is this real rainbow obsidian? pulsarplanet.pl/allegro_galeria.php?pid=7905&iid=0&aid=1Im asking, just to be sure, because this trader almost scamed me in other trades. Now i want to be sure, just because, but it looks okay to me. I dont know. What you guys think?

It looks like slag glass with an iridescent sheen on the surface if you ask me. I would look elsewhere. Try a US dealer and see if they'll ship internationally.

Looking at the last pic, I'd say it is obsidian. Some of the volcanic ash is visible in that last pic. One of our members collects and sells rainbow obsidian. He may say something later, and may be able to ship internationally. Check out the following link to the last time he sold some. forum.rocktumblinghobby.com/thread/63313/davis-creek-rainbow-christmas-special?page=1I bought a box from him, and it's good quality material. I just checked the link, and he did send a box internationally.

Those pictures show the sheen going across the bands which doesn't look right, probably trick photography or a reflection of a sunset or something, which is my guess because all the pictures have the same colors throughout them.
I still have some rainbow for sale if you are interested send me a pm and we can work out the details.
Have a great day..............Tony

Hi guys, thanks for all answers! This is one of this kind of sellers, that offers so called "andara crystals"... So i think its just another slug glass junk, but this time called rainbow obsidian. I really appreciate offer, but for no im out of cash. And I already bought one in my country. It is not rainbow type, but for sure its dark obsidian, which i like too. Im so happy! Ash on it still smells really... volcanic. It makes me love it even more! Here are somo fotos, from auction. allegro.pl/czarny-obsydian-z-iranu-14cm-x-8-cm-x-7cm-700gram-i3986605233.htmlAgain sorry for my english, but i hope you can understand me. I have some writing issues, because im not using this language at all. Good day to you guys!
