Anyone ever come across an obsidian like this? I believe I got this years ago in Hawaii during my navy brat days. The red color is fingernail polish from a childhood painting "experiment"....

If you look closely at the microscope picture there is banding and areas of translucency which I thought was evidence of agitization. The material isn't granular but like shotgunner mentioned doesn't display conchoidal fracturing. I've got several pieces tumbling and it will be interesting how it turns out. Thanks all
