I'm still working on a club presentation on Obsidian next month so I decided to do a big one. 4-1/2" across. Bob

Absolutely spectacular cab! What would you call that variety, Bob? I know my knowledge of obsidian is sadly, very limited but you seem to work it a lot. Could you maybe one of these times. post pics of the different varieties for those of us who are into identification? Sort of an obsidian identification tutorial......Mel
