About the Item
This outstanding 18.6 gram Moldavite specimen exemplifies the finest qualities of this rare tektite, treasured by collectors and institutions alike. Moldavite formed over 15 million years ago during a meteorite impact in what is now the Czech Republic. The extreme heat and pressure fused terrestrial silica with extraterrestrial material, creating this translucent bottle-green natural glass.
This specimen exhibits the saturated bottle-green hue, high translucency, and dynamic surface texture texture that serve as hallmarks of the highest-grade Moldavite. Its weight and striking form elevate it into the museum-caliber category, making it highly desirable for advanced collectors, investors, and enthusiasts of meteorite-related material.
As Moldavite becomes scarcer on the market, pieces of this size and quality represent exceptional acquisitions for both long-term value and natural history significance. This genuine, highly collectible tektite comes with Certificate of Authenticity.
