Moldavite (Czech: vltavín) is a forest green, olive green or blue greenish vitreous silica projectile glass formed by a meteorite impact probably in southern Germany (Nördlinger Ries Crater) that occurred about 15 million years ago. It is a type of tektite. (Wikipedia)
I’ve been frequently asked about moldavite, and after a bit of research, I finally purchased some. Apparently there is a lot of fake moldavite out there, so we took extra care to get the real thing. Do your research about it. You can tell if it’s genuine with careful examination with a jewelry loop. You will see bubbles, bubbly looking flow patterns, and inclusions. Moldavite will be a grayish green color.
