Personally, I wouldn't trust anything from china as far as I can throw it. I know a fellow on Paleoplanet who has knapped almost every variety of Obsidian known, and I haven't seen anything like that in his work. Like Matt said, probably just aqua glass.
On the other side, that's a beautiful piece! Obsidian or not, that's a great color."The education of a man is never completed until he dies." Robert E. Lee

WOW That is some absolutely beautiful material. The Blade is just over the top awesome. Your flaking is just perfect. Thanks for showing the pictures. Do you have any idea where I could buy a slab like that? I would love to get my hands on one of those. I have 67 different materials on my "Knapped Lithics list" and I have knapped several I can't name. I do believe my point here is glass and I have knapped several different types of glass too.
