Gold Moldavite Pendant I 20.20g I Marouskovo Pole

A truly exceptional piece of wearable art, this one-of-a-kind pendant combines the rarity of a museum-quality Moldavite with the enduring luxury of solid 14K gold.

At its centre is a magnificent 20.20 gram Marouskovo Pole Moldavite, selected for its outstanding symmetry, deeply sculptured natural etching, and remarkable preservation. The intricate texture across the entire surface is a testament to millions of years of natural weathering, while the balanced proportions give the specimen an unusually harmonious appearance rarely encountered in stones of this size.

The Moldavite has been meticulously hand set in solid 14K gold using six elegant leaf-shaped prongs. Rather than overpowering the specimen, the refined setting enhances its natural beauty, securely framing the stone while allowing its exceptional form and texture to remain the centrepiece. The graceful botanical-inspired design perfectly complements the organic origins of this extraordinary Czech tektite.

Containing 3.2 grams of solid 14K gold, the pendant offers both substance and timeless elegance. Every angle reflects careful craftsmanship, resulting in a piece that is equally suited to discerning collectors and those seeking an heirloom-quality item of jewellery.

Large, symmetrical Marouškovo Pole specimens of this calibre have become increasingly difficult to obtain, making this a rare opportunity to acquire a truly remarkable example. Combining exceptional natural beauty, rarity and fine gold craftsmanship, this pendant represents the very finest of what genuine Moldavite has to offer.

What is Moldavite & where is it from?

Moldavite is a rare tektite or meteoric glass, caused by an asteroid impact 15 million years ago. The intense, 10,000°C+ temperatures of the strike vapourised the asteroid, target rock and sand, flinging the molten substance high into the atmosphere.

From the impact zone in Germany some 300km away, it landed back to earth in what is now the Czech Republic and as it flew, it cooled and solidified into translucent green, glass-like droplets of various shapes and sizes.

It is said that only 1% of what had originally fallen is still intact to this day and the estimates of the total amount of Moldavite remaining is under 300 tonnes. In comparison with gold or diamonds, this makes Moldavite 1000x rarer.

99% of all Moldavite is found in a small area in the southern part of the Czech Republic. It can be found on the surface but the highly prized, well-preserved specimens are found up to 6 metres underground.
