This is a beautiful moldavite pendant from the Czech Republic that has been hand wrapped in 14k yellow gold filled wire that coils around the stone. This wire wrapped pendant was created by wrapping the wire around the stone, holding it in place with pressure and setting it on a hand wrapped twisted bail. This elegant but minimalist wrap helps to accentuate the natural beauty of this otherworldly stone, creating a true showpiece. This particular piece of moldavite is also very unique because it has a small natural hole that runs through the stone in the top right corner. About Moldavite: A product of a meteor strike that took place in the Moldau Valley in what is now the Czech Republic more than 14 million years ago, Moldavite is a olive green tektite that was formed from the impact created by the heat and kinetic energy of the meteor striking the sand, creating a special type of gemstone that has some of the properties of desert glass, but others that are unique, with flecks of the meteor itself strewn throughout the stone. Moldavite is as incredibly rare as it is beautiful and is thought to be a powerful stone sought after by healers for its strange resonance and properties as well as gem enthusiasts around the world. Because it is so highly prized, there is a lot of fake moldavite on the market today, much of which is being sold by gem dealers and jewelry makers without their knowledge that they are passing along forgeries. This is why at Denique Vintage Designs, we spent the better part of a year finding a source directly in the heart of the Czech Republic for our Moldavite that we could trust, ensuring that every piece of moldavite we get is genuine and of high quality. All of our moldavite jewelry comes with a Certificate of Authenticity and is not made into jewelry until we have performed our own tests here at the shop.
