Silver Sheen Obsidian Snake Carving

A beautifully carved snake sculpted from natural silver sheen obsidian, with a deep black surface that catches flashes of silvery light as it moves.

Curled into an elegant, winding form, this little snake has an almost hypnotic quality. The detailed scales follow the curves of the body, while the polished surface allows the natural silver sheen of the obsidian to reveal itself across the carving.

Snakes have long been associated with transformation, renewal, wisdom and shedding what no longer serves us — making this a particularly fitting piece for an altar, spiritual space or simply somewhere you can admire its unusual beauty.

Silver sheen obsidian is traditionally associated with protection, self-reflection and clarity of vision. It is said to reveal hidden truths, strengthen the connection to one’s higher self, and offer a mirror to the soul — a deeply introspective stone for those drawn to shadow work and inner growth.

Please note: Silver sheen obsidian is a natural volcanic glass, and the intensity and placement of the silver sheen will vary throughout the stone. Each carving will have its own natural markings and variations.
