Apache tear drum ground 1.5-3cm
Apache Tear, drum sanded 1.5–3 cm
Apache tear is a special form of black obsidian, also known as obsidianite and mareccanite. This mineral formed when silica-rich lava cooled and combined with volcanic glass (perlite), creating small, smooth, dark stones. These natural wonders are found primarily in the southwestern United States, such as Arizona, Nevada, and Utah.
Backstory and origins:
The name "Apache Tear" comes from a touching story about the fate of the Apache tribe during the American Indian Wars in the 1870s. Faced with overwhelming enemy forces, the Apache warriors chose their own fate and rode off the mountain to their deaths. When their loved ones learned of what had happened, their tears, according to legend, turned into these beautiful stones.
