Description and lore

Obsidian Shard

A glossy obsidian shard exposes a sharp edge in dark volcanic glass.

Lore and observations

The shard can look almost black until its fractured surface catches the sky. Its cutting form connects raw stone directly to a possible tool.

A fitted handle and discarded flakes tell the maker's story. Useful geometry matters more than making the shard unnaturally large.
