An impressive 10.54 gram Moldavite from the renowned Marouškovo Pole locality, distinguished by its graceful elongated form and unusual crescent-like profile. Weighing over ten grams, this substantial specimen is both aesthetically striking and increasingly difficult to obtain, making it a highly desirable addition to any serious Moldavite collection.
Its most captivating feature is the sweeping natural curve that extends through the entire body, creating an elegant crescent silhouette unlike the more typical rounded or fan-shaped Marouškovo Pole specimens. Smooth flowing contours and subtle parallel flow lines trace the length of the piece, revealing the dynamic movement of molten glass as it solidified over 15 million years ago. The broad, rounded body gives the specimen a pleasing sense of balance and harmony, while its rich olive-green colour displays excellent translucency when illuminated.
The surface exhibits the characteristic flowing sculpture of Marouškovo Pole, with softly weathered textures that complement the specimen's refined shape. Rather than dramatic relief, this piece is defined by its elegant proportions and fluid architecture, giving it an almost sculptural quality that is immediately appealing from every angle.
This specimen remains largely intact, with one small edge chip that has little impact on its overall beauty or display presence. Such a minor natural imperfection is reflected in the price while offering the opportunity to acquire an attractive double-digit gram specimen from this highly sought-after locality at exceptional value.

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.

Moldavite is a rare, green tektite formed from a meteorite impact that occurred around 15 million years ago in what is now the Czech Republic. This extraordinary stone is found only in a small region around the Moldau River in Bohemia, making it one of the rarest gemstones on Earth.
Authentic Moldavite has a distinctive surface texture, natural pits, and a translucent green color that varies in intensity. It is also lighter than glass imitations. To ensure authenticity, purchase Moldavite from reputable sources, and consider requesting a certificate of authenticity.
Moldavite is believed to be a powerful stone for transformation, personal growth, and spiritual connection. It is often used in meditation, energy healing, and other spiritual practices to enhance intuition, amplify energy, and facilitate communication with higher realms.
To care for your Moldavite jewelry, gently clean it with a soft cloth and mild soap. Avoid exposing it to harsh chemicals, extreme temperatures, or prolonged sunlight, as these can affect its color and structure. Store Moldavite separately to prevent scratches.
Moldavite is expensive due to its rarity and limited supply, as it is found only in a specific region of the Czech Republic. Additionally, its unique origins and increasing popularity as both a gemstone and a spiritual tool contribute to its high value. Prices can vary significantly depending on the size, quality, and uniqueness of the piece.
