striking natural mineral inclusions. Completely intact, this exceptional specimen offers a character rarely encountered in Moldavite, combining substantial size with geological features that make it particularly appealing to serious collectors.\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike the deeply sculptured forms more commonly associated with Marouškovo Pole, this specimen displays an attractive \u003cstrong\u003ejelly bean-like shape\u003c\/strong\u003e, with softly rounded contours and a naturally weathered surface developed over millions of years. Its smooth, almost satin-like exterior gives the piece a distinctive appearance while preserving subtle remnants of its original flow textures around the margins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe specimen exhibits a rich, deep olive-green colour with limited translucency due to its greater thickness and the presence of natural inclusions. Embedded within one face are several patches of original host matrix, preserving a tangible connection to the environment in which the Moldavite rested for millions of years before excavation. These natural inclusions are not flaws but fascinating geological features that enhance the specimen's individuality and collector appeal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIts pleasing proportions, substantial weight and unusual morphology make this a highly distinctive example of Marouškovo Pole Moldavite. Pieces displaying this combination of smooth weathering, natural matrix inclusions and complete preservation are seldom encountered and offer collectors something genuinely different from the more typical sculptured forms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhether appreciated for its geological significance or its unique aesthetic character, this is a memorable specimen that stands apart within any serious Moldavite collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"flex max-w-full flex-col gap-4 grow\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\" class=\"min-h-8 text-message relative flex w-full flex-col items-end gap-2 text-start break-words whitespace-normal outline-none keyboard-focused:focus-ring [.text-message+\u0026amp;]:mt-1\" tabindex=\"0\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"flex w-full flex-col gap-1 empty:hidden\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"markdown prose dark:prose-invert wrap-break-word w-full light markdown-new-styling\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"flex max-w-full flex-col gap-4 grow\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\" class=\"min-h-8 text-message relative flex w-full flex-col items-end gap-2 text-start break-words whitespace-normal outline-none keyboard-focused:focus-ring [.text-message+\u0026amp;]:mt-1\" tabindex=\"0\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"flex w-full flex-col gap-1 empty:hidden\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"markdown prose dark:prose-invert wrap-break-word w-full light markdown-new-styling\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eMoldavite Weight: 7.44g\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eLocality: Marouskovo Pole \u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"559\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eEach piece comes with a certificate of authenticity tied to a money-back guarantee.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003eWhat is Moldavite \u0026amp; where is it from?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMoldavite is a rare tektite or meteoric glass, caused by an asteroid impact 15 million years ago.
