anyone any idea?

this one is a quite interesting to us. my wife loved it! it is her favourite one.

it seems like an andesite but it is really beautiful and i did not know the andesite as a shiny beautiful rock like this one! maybe it was because of my lack of information and experience

one important thing is that the stone has shiny points when you move it before your eyes, looks like there is embedded particles to shine!!

but i have checked the snowflake obsidian to be sure and found one or two similar one like here in the photos. seems possible but again i'm still not sure

It looks like an igneous rock like diorite or diabase. The sparkles could be manganese. Gary

I concur. Sparkles are pyroxene.
