This soft soldered pewter pendant features a natural 1.9 gram Moldavite from the Maly Chlum locality in the Czech Republic, showcasing the beautifully etched texture and rich green colour that make genuine Moldavite so distinctive.

A freshwater river pearl and a deep red garnet are set on either side, adding an elegant contrast to the stone's natural character.

This Moldavite has sustained damage, with a chip along one side and a small chip at the base. While visible on close inspection, the intricately etched front remains the focal point when worn, making this an excellent opportunity to own a larger genuine Moldavite at a more accessible price.

Finished with a polished sterling silver bail, this timeless pendant is perfect for everyday wear.

This piece has been handcrafted using lead-free jeweller's pewter with added sterling silver. This traditional technique creates an organic, one-of-a-kind finish, ensuring that no two pieces are ever exactly alike.

  • Moldavite Weight: 1.9g

  • Material: Soft Soldered Pewter

  • Locality: Maly Chlum, Czech Republic

  • Matching stainless steel chain included

Each piece comes with a certificate of authenticity tied to a money-back guarantee.

 

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.
