Obsidian is truth-enhancing.  A strongly protective stone, it forms a shield against negativity.  It blocks psychic attack and absorbs negative energies from the environment.  Obsidian draws out mental stress and tension.  It stimulates growth on all levels, urging exploration of the unknown and opening new horizons.  Brings clarity to the mind and clears confusion.  Helps you to know who you truly are.  Obsidian dissolves emotional blockages and ancient traumas.  Promotes qualities of compassion and strength.

Why do I work with copper?

I work with copper because it is known as a lucky and healing metal. Copper conducts spiritual energy back and forth between individuals, crystals, auras, the mind and the spirit world. 
Copper is known to have its own healing properties so when combined with a stone/crystal your actually gaining something from both materials.

Does copper tarnish? Yes. This happens to all metals over time. This is caused by the environment in which we live. The chemicals and minerals we come in contact with daily. From soap, lotion, oils, hair products and even tap water.

Soooo yes, copper may tarnish over time but it can easily be removed with a jewelry polishing cloth or even steel wool (only to the copper, not the stone).
