This variety of obsidian, also known as "snowflake," "speckled," or "starred," derives its charm from the white inclusions of phenocrysts.

These orbicules of recrystallization, resulting from the recrystallization of obsidian glass, create patterns resembling white or gray spots, often contrasting with a black or gray background.

Mines: Italy, Japan, Mexico, the USA and Guatemala
