This is a nice Butterfly carved from beautiful Brown Goldstone. It measures
1 1/2" x 1 1/4" with a very nice polish. Good addition to any collection.
Goldstone is a type of man-made glass with Copper or Copper salts made
by a reducing flame. The most common form of Goldstone give the illusion

crystals and the glass itself is colorless. Other variants have an intensely
color matrix usually blue or violet, and more rare, green.

C32b This is a carved
Snowflake Obsidian frog. It measures 1 3/4" in length by 5/8" in height
and has a nice Black and White color and neat design.
Obsidian is a rock which is a type of naturally occurring glass that
is produced by volcanoes when felsic lava cools rapidly and freezes without
sufficient time for Crystal growth. It is an extrusive igneous rock.
Because Obsidian lacks Crystal structure, the blade edges can reach almost
molecular thinness, leading to the ancient use of arrow heads and the modern
use of surgical scalpel blades.
