    If the project were mine i would set the obsidian in an annealed fine
    silver or 24 kt bezel ( re -anneal as you form the bezel to keep it
    very soft)  I would then design  protection  in Sterling or 14 kt 
    that will shield the obsidian and the soft bezel while not pressing
    against it.  simple, safe and gives your patron what they asked for.
