Rustic Black Obsidian Arrow Pendant

The arrow is a powerful symbol of strength and courage. It is carved from rustic black obsidian and set in tumbaga with a small amber.

Obsidian is the quintessential Mexican stone. It is an igneous rock that forms when volcanic magma cools and solidifies upon reaching the surface.

It was used by Aztec goldsmiths and warriors to make spears, knives, mirrors and of course jewelry. That is why obsidian is a symbol of power and protection against negative energies.

Its black color is reminiscent of the night and its volcanic origin makes it even more special and mysterious.

Feel safe and connected to your deepest instincts while wearing this unique and magical piece!

Includes a stainless steel chain.

Composition and recommendations for use:

Avoid contact with water.

Polish with any metal polishing liquid or compound every 15 days or once a month. (Ex: Dialux White, Dialux Yellow, Brasso liquid, etc.)

Tumbaga is a metal that ancient indigenous goldsmiths in America used to make their jewelry. In ancient times, it was made up of a mixture of gold and copper. Today, the tumbaga found on the market is a mixture of 85% copper + 15% zinc. That is why its color tends to be more reddish and brass more yellow.

With the natural oxidation process, after 15 days you will be able to see the metal darken or become dull, turning the color of bronze. For this reason, we recommend polishing it every 15 days or at least once a month. This way, it will regain its golden color and shine like the first time. It can be polished countless times and the jewel will last forever.
