Moldavite & Libyan Desert Glass Pendant - Copper Wrap

A beautifully balanced handcrafted pendant featuring a genuine Czech Moldavite and genuine Libyan Desert Glass, expertly wire wrapped in solid copper. The two rare impact glasses have been thoughtfully positioned so they stack seamlessly together, creating an elegant oval silhouette that is both striking and harmonious.

The lower half showcases a deeply textured piece of natural Moldavite with rich olive-green tones and pronounced sculpting, while the upper section features a softly frosted piece of Libyan Desert Glass whose warm golden hue perfectly complements the Moldavite below. The flowing copper wirework embraces both stones without concealing their natural beauty, enhancing their organic forms while providing a secure, artistic setting.

This pairing is especially meaningful, bringing together two of Earth's most extraordinary natural glasses, each born from separate cosmic impact events millions of years apart. The result is a distinctive one-of-a-kind pendant that is as fascinating as it is beautiful.

What is Moldavite & where is it from?
Moldavite is a rare tektite or meteoric glass, caused by an asteroid impact 15mil. 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 to be found up to 6m underground.
