Decorative Aggregate - Obsidian, 1" Size, Brown

Decorative aggregate in a 1" size, featuring obsidian and a rich brown color, is a premium landscaping material prized for its striking appearance and durability. Obsidian is a naturally occurring volcanic glass, known for its glossy finish and unique coloration, making it an eye-catching choice for both residential and commercial projects.

The 1" size range offers excellent coverage while remaining easy to handle and install. This size is ideal for creating bold visual accents in garden beds, pathways, and around water features, as well as for use in decorative borders and modern hardscape designs. The obsidian attribute ensures a smooth, lustrous surface that resists fading and weathering, while the brown hue blends seamlessly with natural landscapes. While not suitable for high-traffic driveways due to its rounded, non-compacting nature, this aggregate excels in low-maintenance, decorative applications where aesthetics and longevity are priorities.
