The listing, Semi-precious Gemstone: Apache Tear; a form of Obsidian with bonus* has ended.
Welcome to my auction which is for one [1] Genuine [Natural] rough [not tumbled], Apache Tear.
****When bids reach 500, I'll add a medicine bag for the WINNER.****
Obsidian, a form of Volcanic Glass, is a wonderful healing tool that may also assist in reducing negativity!
When held up to the light, it has a nearly transparent smokey color even though it looks black in the photo and, when held or placed on something.
There are many websites that carry info regarding this incredible semi-precious gemstone. The Legend of the Apache Tear can be found at the following link:

The photos are of four Apache Tears, that are in my semi-precious gemstone collection and were on my glass top table.
The WINNER will receive one of the three that remain. It weighs approximately 1/2 ounce and, is nearly 2-1/2 mm by 1-1/2 mm or, approximately 1 inch x 5/8 inch at it's widest points. It's considered to be Medium Sized.

I'd love to be able to ship free however, last week cost me quite a bit for shipping charges. I'm retired and no other steady income so, I do the best I can to keep shipping to EXACT and not FLAT RATE - which always costs more.
Happy bidding .... :=)
