This is a Moldavite Cabochon Pendant, Polished One Side, Raw One Side. Total weight is 6.13Grams/30.65Ct. The pendant is drill set with .925 silver.
This style pendant is highly sought after. The polished side gracefully reflects light into the moldavite structure which reveals visible inclusions and air bubbles. The lighter weight makes for more value per carat for such an elegant piece.
Polished moldavite is the easiest to identify as being fake. Air bubbles + lechaterierite can easily be seen throughout this pendant leaving no doubt to authenticity.
History
Known as the Emerald that fell from the universe, Moldavite is a tektite (Meteorite) with a hardness ranging from 5.6 - 7 on the Mohs scale. The asteroid hit the earth 15 million years ago in what is now known as the Ries Crater in Barvaria (Germany). The material from the impact was sent flying into the atmosphere, cooled down & formed the melted glass into what is now called Moldavite. The splash field or primarily landing of the melted crystals returning to earth is in the areas of South Bohemia (Czech Republic). Moldavite is not found in any other region on the earth.
Moldavite has been used since Stone Age times as a talisman and amulet for good fortune. Many people believe that it came to aid in earth’s transition and healing and that the time has come to use Moldavite’s energies wisely. It can greatly enhance the effect of other crystals, taking them to their highest vibration.
