This exceptional 8.46 gram Maly Chlum Moldavite is a remarkable specimen from one of the world's most desirable localities. Its extraordinarily deep sculpturing, rich emerald-green colour and outstanding surface texture make it a truly eye-catching piece that would command a substantially higher price were it not for the damage sustained during excavation.
The specimen has been chipped along two sides, reducing its collector value while leaving the vast majority of its spectacular natural character intact. In fact, the damage serves as a reminder of just how difficult it is to recover Moldavite from the ground without incident, particularly specimens of this size and quality. Despite the losses along the edges, the remaining texture is nothing short of exceptional, displaying the deeply etched, rugged sculpturing that has made Maly Chlum one of the most sought-after Moldavite localities.
Had this specimen survived excavation intact, it would likely be worth several times its current asking price. Instead, it offers a rare opportunity to acquire a large, beautifully coloured and heavily sculptured Maly Chlum Moldavite at an exceptionally accessible price. Its shape also lends itself well to being transformed into an impressive bespoke jewellery piece, should you wish to give this extraordinary stone a new life.
