Moldavite jewelry

Moldavites are getting very popular and also more rare and expensive all the time.

For those,who do not know anything about Moldavites yet,here is short description..

Moldavite is a rare, glassy, translucent, dark green silica-based tektite, a mineral formed when a meteorite (a rock from space) struck the Earth’s surface and melted and fused the surrounding rock. Moldavite is only found in Bohemia (the Czech Republic) in the Ries Crater in the Moldau River valley (which it was named for). Moldavite was discovered in the late 1800′s; the meteorite from which it formed hit the Earth about 14.7 million years ago. Moldavite has a Mohs hardness of 5.5-6.6. Inclusions of gas bubbles and iron/nickel spherules are common. This natural glass has been used for jewelry, religious articles, and decorative objects since prehistoric times.
