Mt. St. Helens Emerald Obsidianite© was born from disaster.
The eruption of Mount Saint Helens in 1980 caused a mud flow
that trapped and destroyed the expensive equipment of a local
logging company. Using acetylene torches to salvage this equipment,
workers quickly noticed that the grey ash of the volcano was
melting and turning green. Inspiration ensured it was only
a matter of time before the first Emerald Obsidianite stones
were created. This disaster and chance discovery has left the
world with this remarkable legacy of beauty. |

Almost all of Emerald Fox Company's 14K gold and silver-filled jewelry products are available in St. Helens Rose. |
