Obsidian: Ancient Power, Contemporary Design from Armenia
Born of volcanic heat and pressure, obsidian—deep black or rich brown—emerges as one of nature’s most captivating materials. With its smooth, reflective surface and sharp, elemental clarity, this volcanic glass has been revered since antiquity. Extracted from the historic landscapes of Armenia, obsidian carries with it a legacy of ritual, symbolism, and enduring beauty. Today, it is reborn as a bold design object, merging primitive force with modern geometry and minimalist elegance.
 
In partnership with Vanakat, G.P.Grant reinterprets this storied stone, unveiling a limited series of obsidian cigar ashtrays where artistry meets rarity. Hand-carved and finished with meticulous precision, each ashtray is a one-of-a-kind creation—sculpted to elevate both form and function. These pieces are more than cigar accessories; they are collectable expressions of strength, balance, and refined taste, designed for those who value authenticity, craftsmanship, and timeless style.
