Unique Qualities
This gorgeous 29 carat Tektite exhibits stunning spiky texture and truly gem-quality green transparency. The product of mystical origins, nobody is truly certain where this gem came from but it is believed to be the result of a massive meteor impact over 12 million years ago. It boggles the mind to think of how long it may have been cruising the cosmos before, against almost all odds, colliding with our earth and fusing meteoritic material with earthbound substances. Sought after by healers and meditators as well as gem collectors and even investors (the price has risen considerably in the last decade), Moldavite is finally receiving the attention it deserves given its most cosmic origins. No other meteorite yet discovered on earth can be considered a true “gemstone”, and this specimen is a fine example of the wonder and power of this alchemical stone born of superheated fire and massive impact.
Moldavite was formed during a celestial event some 15 million years ago. A huge astroid estimated to be around 1 km in diameter struck southern Germany and formed what is today known as Ries Crater. Moldavite is known as the stone of transformation, a catalyst to inspire positive change and elevate one’s consciousness.
