Moldavite
Moldau River Valley
Czech Republic

This large and unusually shaped impactite of the Moldavite variety weighs 12 grams, which actually puts it in the premium category for size and value. The interesting form exhibits a flattish shape with a slightly rounded aspect similar to a section of bark off a tree. This piece features excellent greenish coloration as well as considerable translucency and organic surface texture. This section is a finer example of the type.
Measurements: 1.46 x 1.25 x 0.44 inches (3.70 x 3.18 x 1.11 cm), weighs 12.3 grams
