DSC_0587_"Oakland Raiders" obsidian cabochon

            Silver and black!  I know what some of you are thinking.... "But they are in Las Vegas now..."

However, just because currently playing and practicing there, doesn't mean they aren't the Oakland Raiders anymore.  They took a vacation from Oakland before, and came back. Their stint as the "L.A. Traitors" only lasted for 12 years.

The real name of this is flow-banded obsidian.  It is a little harder to achieve a final polish on this than it is on mahogany obsidian, so a few scratches remain.  As soon as I track down my leather pad, I'll give it a cerium polish and let it get nice and hot. That usually does the trick with obsidian.
