Moldavite Sterling Silver Ring; size 6 1/2

The gem from outer space! This stunning olive-green gem belongs to a family of stones called Tektites: meteoric impact glasses. 14.7 million years ago, a giant meteorite hit western Bavaria, causing melted terrestrial material to fly into the air, where it cooled quickly and formed moldavite. Most of it fell in the Moldau Valley in the Czech Republic, hence the name “moldavite.”

Moldavite is sought out for its metaphysical properties, as a tool for spiritual development and consciousness expansion. People who are sensitive to stone energies describe Moldavite as a stone with an extremely high vibration, which is felt as heat or a pulsing tingle. Moldavite is supposed to open blockages in any chakra. Many report that working with the mineral has coincided with an acceleration of their spiritual path.
