With exquisite form, light greenish coloration, and classic bush-like shape, this piece of Besednice Moldavite weighing 7.4 grams is supremely collectible. Representing the crater-forming event that created the Nördlinger Ries Crater, this example of that projectile glass impactite is collector grade to the highest order. Dating back some 15 million years, the piece from renowned occurrences of the Czech Republic is of a quality rarely seen and even more rarely available for acquisition. Out of a curated private collection, this example is incredible on both sides and beautiful when backlit.
Measurements: 1.74 x 0.83 x 0.39 inches (4.42 x 2.10 x 0.98 cm), weighs 7.4 grams
