No, it is an extrusive igneous rock, which means it is made on the Earth's surface, as opposed to intrusive (or plutonic) rocks, which are made under the Earth's crust. Obsidian is most often produced by the rapid cooling of silica-rich lava, such as by contact with water, which crystallizes the lava into a glassy solid.
