Question

obsidian
are theys 10 peices of obsidian that are 20mm rare?How is all of them worth

Answer
Gavin:
I really cannot tell from your picture the state of the pieces you have.  I suppose if they are clear and of good quality they might have some value to a jewerly maker.  What that value is and how you would sell them though is beyond my expertise.  Take a look on eBay and see if anyone is selling obsidian.
