About Black Obsidian Round Bead

Volcanic glass formed when lava cools too fast to crystallise, obsidian has a deep glassy sheen. Traditionally regarded as a protective, grounding stone — worn like a mirror that keeps you clear-eyed and rooted.

In the five-element system (五行), Black Obsidian Round Bead carries the Water element (水) — stillness, depth and flow — the quiet, adaptable energy of wisdom and rest. Balancing the Water beads on your strand against the other four elements is the heart of how a LunarBeads bracelet is designed.

Worn as a quiet reminder for black, grounded and water, Black Obsidian Round Bead mixes freely with the other Water stones — and with contrasting elements when you want to round out a strand. Each bead is strung to order in your chosen wrist size, so the piece is truly yours.
